Abstract

This paper records the development of a final year project by Alan Seatwo, undergraduate studying BSc (Hon) Libraries and Information Management at Liverpool John Moores University. The project involved the development of an OPAC for cataloguing Chinese language material which can be used by both Chinese and non‐Chinese speaking staff. The project highlighted some important issues regarding information management in community languages. It also pointed out the lack of provision of software to support librarian, in addressing community language needs. At the same time librarians should also be aware of the latest information technologies and be able to apply them to the needs of the community.
