Botswana is currently transforming from a natural resource to a knowledge based economy. Therefore, Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST) is working towards positioning itself to respond to the new and emerging demands of Botswana’s transformation agenda. The university is striving to produce graduates that would drive the nation’s need of an inclusive knowledge based society through promoting community development. Furthermore,it is also working towards maximising it’s research and expertise to fully harness the transfer and application of its knowledgeable generation that contribute to economic and social benefits to the nation.
This new role of university and the changing research landscape has prompted the university library to forge collaboration with internal and external key stakeholders to promote knowledge sharing and accessibility. The purpose of this paper is to share outcomes of formed collaborations by BIUST library with its stakeholders. It further discusses how these collaborations have assisted in increasing locally produced publication’s visibility to the global community. |
