“…The genuineness, identified earlier by Afolabi (1992), features in other works as well: 'Helpers willing to be open and honest about themselves have a tremendous advantage. They can forget themselves and so give themselves much more freely to the task at hand.…”

“…What is required is willingness to recognize that someone else's ways of perceiving are equally real to him' (Combs et al, 1978, p. 132). Afolabi (1992) adds to this, respect, concreteness and genuinenessother counselling concepts that can be used in a library reference interview. Combs et al (1978) say good helpers possess several traits: they are knowledgeable and believe in what they know, they are focused on people, they feel adequate as a person and can share self to create relationships, they believe in their purpose, they use a method/technique that fits them and is genuine to them (pp.…”

This issue, in collaboration with the State Library of New South Wales, we are pleased to feature the 2018 winner of the Jean Arnot Memorial Fellowship. The Fellowship is awarded to a female librarian or student of librarianship for an outstanding paper of no more than 5000 words on any aspect of librarianship. Papers focusing on innovative solutions to contemporary library issues and services are encouraged. The fellowship is named in honour of the late Jean Fleming Arnot, MBE, FLAA, a former staff member of the State Library of New South Wales. Miss Arnot retired as head cataloguer in 1968 after a distinguished career of over 47 years. Miss Arnot was active in women's organisations and a pioneer in the campaign for equal pay for women. The Jean Arnot Memorial Fellowship is funded by a generous donation from the National Council of Women of New South Wales and the Australian Federation of Business and Professional Women's Associations to commemorate Miss Arnot and her achievements.

“…Rather, it is declared that clients who use technology will receive therapy services if (1) therapy is acted far more than an inward connection with clients' body and (2) there is an improved mediated access to counselling services (Coman, Burrows, & Evans, 2001).

The growing urge for mental health via telecommunication systems argues for such services to be discussed at the field of human-computer interaction. However, in spite of the research and evidence that express effectivity of telecounselling, details about the transition to computer-mediated environment are still uncharted. "Cybertherapogy" was coined in this regard to build a schema for engaging and creating meaningful therapy experiences during remote sessions. The model labels strategies that mental health providers should include in their services. Cognitive, counselling, and emotional modules were intersected and overlapped to construct the domains of therapeutic presence in cyberspace. This architecture of emotional agency has been synthesised for psychotherapy by the ongoing concepts and theoretical foundations of present study and electronic learning engagement. It is believed that the model will enable therapists to facilitate their remote, professional engagement with clients and help design administrative tactics for adequate therapy services.
