However, teacher-librarians must first appreciate the value of resource sharing where resources are collaboratively shared between similar type of institutions. Therefore, the awareness and perception of the teacher-librarians towards the establishment of school library networks as well as the application of open source solutions in materialising the project would be useful in strategising appropriate actions. |
