HML Annual report 2010-2011

3. The Hullett Memorial Library has made a conscious effort to
constantly upgrade its facilities and services in order to remain
relevant in this information age. Our foremost concern is to create
a warm and information rich environment where students and
staff of Raffles Institution can partake a variety of activities both
pleasant and conducive to life-long learning with the aid of up-to-
date resources and advanced information technology.
The Hullett Memorial Library sees itself as the hub of academic life
and the nexus of information gathering and dissemination at
Raffles Institution. It exists to:
 Provide absolute support for the curriculum in terms of
both the resources and services.
 Provide a positive learning environment, enabling pupils to
become effective learners with access to the latest
technology.
 Foster a love for reading.
Promote Raffles Institution, by its role as a leader, in school library
services in Singapore

7. It didn’t seem so long ago that I took the helm from Hui Chiang last year.
However fast time seems to fly, the time for the next batch to take over draws
near. It may seem like a normal year to everyone, but to have been able to lead
the club, handle the admin and head the activities, has been a great pleasure to
do. I do hope that next year, the club will become the well-oiled clock that I had
envisioned last year, and reach for greater heights.
All the work we managed to do has not been possible without the help of the
teachers, Ms Many, Mdm Ho, Mdm Loy and Mrs Yap. A great thank you to the
current EXCO for making everything work out. It has been a fun year.
Here’s wishing the next year’s EXCO good luck!
This is your Chief Librarian speaking. I know that we have faced many
issues this year, be it from users of the library or within ourselves, and I
congratulate everyone for all the hard work they have put in for the club and
HML. Another year has passed, and the library is still standing, enduring on its
roots. Each and every one is important to the club, and thanks to the
members and especially Mrs. Yap and the staff, we have managed to enjoy
yet another year in the library. I see that our recruitment numbers are low,
but I am glad that those new librarians though few, have wonderful qualities
in them and will make our library a place that is better than ever. From my
point of view, this year’s activities have been enriching, and I sincerely hope
that all librarians can keep the bonds they forged when we were gathered
together to work together as a team to serve the library. Hopefully, I will
observe less petty arguments between members disagreeing and I will see
more of that strong friendship among librarians. This annual report
summarizes this year’s activities and fun we had, and it contains some
reflections as well. This report is a part of the library club’s history, and we
have been going strong for many years already. I want to see that next year
will be the same or better. This club is made depending on us. We shape how
it works, and based on how much effort we put in, the club will prosper as
much. So I wish all the best to everybody, and keep up the good work. Thank
you.
