The Information Institutions and Professional skills Department of the Bibliotheca Alexandrina has launched "Quarantine Diary of Information Professionals", a YouTube channel initiated by the BA Library Sector. This channel aims at shedding a light on the life of information professionals during the COVID19 crisis, as a kind of advocacy for the importance of information professionals and a promotion for the great role they play and the services they offer in general, and during this difficult period in particular. In this channel, created on the 5th of May 2020, we have shared daily videos for information professionals from all over the world.
