"My career as a librarian started in 1984 when I was appointed Librarian II at the Kenneth Dike Library, University of Ibadan (UI), Ibadan after my Masters’ Degree in Library Science at the University of Ibadan. My University Librarian was eagerly waiting for me to assume duty because she said my performance at the interview was outstanding and I was highly recommended by one of the most iconic LIS professors of international repute. Unknown to me, my letter had been written over 3months earlier but I never received it until by sheer providence, I travelled casually to Ibadan to find out what had become of the interview result (telephones were not commonplace in the early 80s)."
