I’m thrilled to have been awarded the ESU/CILIP Travelling Librarian Award for 2007!
This award, jointly sponsored by the English Speaking Union and CILIP, will enable me to undertake a study tour in the
United States for two weeks in October 2007. It is designed to encourage US/UK contacts in the library world and the establishment of permanent links. I plan to visit a number the National Library of Medicine, the American Pharmacists Association and a number of university pharmacy departments. Of great relevance to my current role I expect it to be a rewarding personal experience as well.
Action: Plan Trip!

WOW! Well done – that’s really exciting. Will there be other library people travelling with you or will you be out on your own?

This is so cool – I’m jealous. I had always thought that these things were longer-term, so it’s great that it doesn’t involve any career break-type negotiations for people. Look forward to hearing about it when it happens.

That’s brilliant news! I’m so pleased for you. Can’t wait to hear all about it.
Was sorry to miss you at the Cilip in London talk this week.
