Petition ​Regarding the Appointment of the National Librarian/Chief Executive Officer (CEO) at the National Library of South Africa (NLSA)

The person occupying this position must be a qualified Librarian

I fully agree that professional librarians or personnel in the information and library fields occupy the positions in the NLSA

I am against irregular appointment of National librarian/ CEO at National library of South Africa. Nepotism should not favour unqualified individuals, while there are many qualified people with high expertise to occupy the position. #haltNLSAinterview

National Librarian must be a qualified Librarian

Not in support what is happening at the NLSA we need qualified librarians to be at the helm of this

Only qualified librarians should be hired as librarians

I support the petition

We call for qualified leadership aat the National Library, and appointment of qualified Records Management Practioners in the Records Institutions and Libraries

stop hiring unqualified candidates while plenty of qualified candidates are sitting at home

I support the petition to save the national library

I agree with you

my signature matters

Information Professionals matter too

The library and information science and Archives must be taken serious

Why the Hiring process doesn't pick from the qualified and registered member of LIASA around each branch, we see people being hired with grade 12 where as we are sitting with degrees and honour's. How are we going to grow and expand our knowledge if we are not hired

We need professionals to serve at libraries

We can not let our profession being undermined

It cannot be that we have to sign petition for NLSA to take our LIS profession seriously. We are calling for immediate intervention, those who continue to undermine the profession of Librarianship have no place at NLSA.

I signed this form because i believe in fair treatment regardless of race or gender.
