USF [University of South Florida] assists foreign university’s library
From the article, While USF is accustomed to the technology of electronic reserves, a detailed online library catalog, the Addis Ababa University in Ethiopia is not quite as lucky. They do not have a digital library. No remote access information. No E-Reserve. No organization. Locating a journal in the Ethiopian university’s library is close to impossible. That was until a USF student named Hashim Ahmed approached librarian Todd Chavez with an idea. Ahmed wanted to create a system of organizing and cataloging the library system at Addis Ababa University so the students could have the same advantages as USF, Chavez said.
