After almost 15 years working at our General Library, my time to retire has come. The bypass surgery and the long and painful recuperation process mean that I no longer can continue with this work. So last Wednesday I passed the keys to Bro. Marco who will take over the directorship. He is however not trained for the job, which involves not only maintaining the modern collection of books but also the conservation of the ancient manuscripts, incunabula and ancient books. It also includes liaison with libraries of other Churches and universities around the world and locally. It was hard work but exciting as well. It was wonderful to meet new people, new interesting book facts and finds, and teaching students the basics of research and using the library to write. thesis.
To all the students, researchers, volunteers and visitors to the library, thanks for the memories!
