The hope is that while all this work is going on, they might finally discover why the power keeps going off!
The packing was extremely well managed and was completed inside a week ready for the removal team to take it all away. It was made slightly easier by the fact that the stock is not going to be made accessible while off-site. Some carefully selected tomes have made it to the temporary facility (situated across the road from Mary Portas' knicker factory) but customers will be using other branches in the interim.
I have really enjoyed working in this environment which has been very different from my previous roles. Now I'm looking for the next challenge. But first, the application forms...
I would be interested to hear from anyone who has undertaken a project where they have had to pack a library, and what were the associated challenges.
Well Jenny,
ReplyDeleteI’m a believer or should I say ‘follower’ and I am proud to be your ‘first’ follower. I have to say I know next to nothing about the Information Sector but I do advocate tea and breaks for tea throughout each and every day. Tea has the capacity to promote contemplation, relaxation, conversation, humour, critical awareness and expression (moaning) and of course biscuits/cake. Some say it is an all-round ‘opiate of the masses’. Or ask ‘Who knows what we might achieve but for tea breaks?’ But I ask, ‘Is it your turn to put the kettle on?’ And I’m usually right. There is so much more to say about tea and I haven’t even started on gardening…let alone the library.
And remember…ask not what tea can do for you but what you can dip into your tea.
Thanks Helen, quite agree. wise words!
