Meet the Committee: On being an Eastern Branch Rep!

Being a Branch Rep involves, in my case, attending meetings! In addition to ensuring that information is channelled between National and Branch committees, I also report to EALCC (or the East Anglian Librarians Consultative Committee) to maintain current awareness of YLG amongst local colleagues working in other LA groups. I also ‘link’ with a Suffolk based SLG committee member.

None of this is in the least onerous as I get to meet a lot of interesting (and very dedicated people) so, in my spare time, I do more of the same. Yes I go to meetings, several of them, more groups with wonderful acronyms… but I also dig my allotment, read and have gossipy meals with friends. And in my real life? — I’m an Advisory Librarian with the Schools Library Service in Suffolk.
