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

We work hard to get this degree so please stop undermining us , really surprise you find jeanalist working as librarian

We are qualified librarians sitting at home not getting jobs

We are being undermined

This is our profession and we deserve integrity

I agree with you

Appointing non LIS professionals is also a big problem in junior positions. Please respect the LIS profession.

I stand firm to defend the National Librarian and ensure qualified leadership at the National Library of South Africa

Qualified librarians in the library

The NLSA must be led by qualified persons who have undergone professional training and processes.

I want professional and qualified Librarians in National library of South Africa

Please don't hire people without relevant qualifications

Only library qualifications must be accepted for those positions

The Minister must also clarify why the Chairperson of the previous Board was not considered to serve for another term. This would have created opportunity for smooth hand over to New Board. Furthermore, the public also deserve to be briefed on why the Previous CEO's contract was not renewed irrespective of his performance. What was the rational behind non-renewal of non-renewal of his contrat

Agreed

No comment

No to unqualified people given librarianship position

I am a recent student and still awaiting my graduation for BINF degree and currently registered with UNISA for a honors degree... Job hunting is hard, but being rejected or sidelined by your own qualifications makes it even harder #we want jobs #LIASA #Librarian

I agree that the integrity of the profession will be compromised should people without LIS head a National Library

It is long overdue

Why hire someone who doesn't have library qualification
