Getting focussed...

Haven't posted this week since I've been trying to get my last project out of the way which has been sorted now, thankfully. Geoff wants a review of all work done over these Easter holidays so no slacking I'm afraid!

Last Monday attended a friends committee meeting which further involved and enlightened me as to the situation of the Library itself.


Present: Paul Bambury (Treasurer), Ruth Oxford, Ben Reading (web & UltraBold),
Me, Nigel, Rob Reading (Chairman)


Library hoping to raise 7 million - applied for grant for 50%, employing an American to raise 25% and the library itself has raised about 8% of the last quarter of the money. In 11 months the library will be moved elsewhere until construction complete where a limited service will be issued. Laura works for the foundation but is doing work that takes her away from fundraising, which is where my volunteer work comes in.

While it is great to be included in this this still leaves me with a final outcome problem...what's going to replace the exhibition idea? The next few days will be dedicated to this solution. In the meantime asking Nigel if I can play around with the type cases at the library might be a good idea, also getting in touch with Nigel from Uni so I can work at Graham's press also...maybe even ask Alan Kitching at some point however I think by that time I should have a good idea about what I am going to produce. Thinking caps on!

P.S. the ultrabold publication published by the library maybe a good vehicle for anything that I may produce or need coverage for...keep this mind, free publicity!
