  4. As of 1 st June 2011. Each item is equal to one page in any given Newspaper or periodical. So far 1,747,118 items uploaded to WOMBAT 1,172,276 Scanned
  5. Liaising with Scanners, IT, Project Manager, Reading Rooms, etc
  6. VIRTUA – Library Management Software – for lending and returning of resources. Working with the readers – Something I don’t get to do within my normal job, yet it is something I felt was important and when the opportunity arose to do some work in the Reading Room I took it as I believe that working with the Readers gives me the opportunity to put the work I am doing with the SCIF project into a wider perspective. As the readers are the ones who will benefit from putting these online.
  7. Chartership – In search of a mentor CPD23 – Begins 20 th June Taking the next step on the Career Ladder Also being proactive in search of opportunities to do training and to take part in conferences like this one.
