Welcome to Asako Shiba's website.

I earned a Master's degree in Library & Information Science from the the University of Hawai'i at Manoa (Library & Information Science Program) in May 2004. This e-portfolio was created when I was an LIS student to provide information about my academic and professional background, and no longer be updated. I'm currently working as an academic librarian. If you'd like to reach me, please feel free to email me.

My professional interest is bibliographic control: cataloging, especially of electronic resources, music, visual resources, and Japanese language materials; and access in a networked environment, especially metadata.
