I really need to do a real post one of these days.

Last week was the bookfair and the library congress. I met a bunch of people I knew, got to shake hands with our former President Richard von Weizsäcker (who happens to be my sister's boss), got in touch with a guy from the booksellers' association who's responsible for the organisation around the Peace Prize of the German Book Trade, for which exists an exhibition we might arrange to have displayed in my library.
I also managed to get a bunch of free books and radio dramas.

And I read almost all of last year's library journals.

Not bad, eh?

Today I have to do the announcements for swearing in ceremony of the new recruits.

Next week I'm in Berlin and from 12th April on my boss will be off on sick leave and I will have to do his job.

Good times all around.

You got to shake hands with a former head of state, that's more impressive than the individuals that most people get to shake hands with. What else is new with you? Any smart attractive guys in your life? What are people thinking about Greece?

New Jersey is facing a budget crisis and the new Governor is an idiot so my library will be lucky if it's still around never mind getting exhibits and free books. :(

Are the free books fic or non fic?
