Question 1: What are we sharing and what needs to be shared?

Hi Mramos,
Yes, indeed the culture of sharing seriously needs to be addressed in order to enhance management and sharing of information in my organization as well. So much information has been created in the Agency but staff are not willing to release information that has been generated from programmes and activities that they have carried out even to be kept in the Library and Documentation Centre. The result is that when information seekers request for information it is difficult to retrieve and access the information. I will also ask the same question "How do we develop a culture of sharing which will indeed enhance information circulation and dissemination?
