Thelma Elsie RUNGKAT

Thelma was a significant influence in my academic life. Always listened and sympathetic to the challenges of ethnicity. She recommended me for my first role with Mason's Book Centre before graduation and I will always hold fond memories of Thelma and my years in Librarianship at BCAE.

Deepest sympathy to Sari and Thelma's family. Thelma was a strong and courageous leader and advocate for librarians in rural and isolated areas and librarians in Indonesia and developing countries. She will be remembered by her many former students all over Australia and overseas. She was also a supportive and encouraging head of department and her friendship will be dearly missed.

Condolences to Sari and Thelma's family. Thelma was a woman of great character, intellect and drive. Her contribution to libraries will be remembered by the many librarians she mentored and taught who are now working across Australia and overseas.

Two powerful words in the Library world: Thelma Rungkat. An inspirational woman with a strong and wonderful legacy. Thoughts and best wishes to Thelma's family, especially Sari.

My condolences to Thelma's family. She was a woman that I greatly admired and a true pioneer in the library world, particularly in relation to the pivotal role that she played with the development of libraries in Indonesia
