A week off means a week of emails to catch-up with: do we want to be part of two European Library projects? - well, just one. Finance want information on Acceptance in Lieu items and donations over £10K for this financial year for the accounts. HR want examples of professional competencies on promoting cultural diversity in interpretation. A French writer wants information on europeana and British Library involvement for an article. Quarter 4 of the business plan needs updating. Sign off an invoice for the acquisition of Zweig 2. Deal with some web archiving questions. In between is a one to one with Peter, a meeting about our forthcoming e-book reader display, a meeting with Nick about any HR issues in European & American Collections, and a one to one with Carole. The CEO's PA rings to see if I could go to Paris later in the month for the launch of the World Digital Library at UNESCO in Paris. Print out the slides for the Scholarship & Collections Review and our meeting tomorrow in Peterborough. Have another discussion with Helen on the domain crawl of free public websites in the UK domain. Time to go home and pack for tomorrow.
Can you report back on any developments about the ebook reader?
