2011 IALL Conference Report: The 30th Annual Course on International Law and Legal Information; Dynamics of Malaysian Law in the Global World

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  28 February 2019

Extract

Back in January 2008 I was asked by the Chief Librarian of the International Islamic University Malaysia Library (IIUM Library) to head the Law Information Section of the Library. Up to that year, which was my twelfth year as a librarian, law had been one of the subjects that I had avoided learning. I knew the complexity and specialization of the subjects and its multitude of collections. I felt that if I did not use the subject on a regular basis, I would easily forget what I learned. Even though skeptical of my own ability to head the department, I took the job to challenge myself, to learn more about the subject and above all to prove to myself how wrong I was about the subject.
