Ich würde mich freuen, wer der ein oder andere noch etwas über seine Bibliothek und seine Aktivitäten erzählen möchte und einen Abstract einreichen würde. Nie waren die Chancen angenommen zu werden so gut wie dieses Jahr! Soweit es in meiner Macht steht, werde ich allen Teilnehmern und insbesondere den Präsentatoren bei Reisekostenzuschüssen und bei der Konferenz mit Rat und Tat zur Seite stehen – und nicht zu vergessen: Lissabon ist wahrlich eine Reise wert und die Gastfreundschaft unserer portugiesischen Kollegen legendär!
