<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-GB>Dear friends and
colleagues<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-GB><o:p></o:p></SPAN> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-GB>Please accept my apologies for a bulk email
(and apologies to those on these lists who do not know me personally) – I wish I
had time to write more personal emails, but my time here is running
out…<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-GB><o:p></o:p></SPAN> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-GB>After nine years working for IFLA in the
Netherlands (and a further five working for them in Denmark a few years before
that doing my PhD) I’m moving on to a new position as the Deputy Executive
Director and head of international relations at the new national library in
Qatar. I’ll start there next month and I’m ready for a change and a new
challenge (and perhaps less Dutch rain). The new library is due to open in
September and I’m looking forward to helping it get on its feet over the next
few years. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-GB><o:p></o:p></SPAN> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-GB>I’m going to be carrying on working with
international information policy issues – which I’m very happy about - and I
hope to run into many of you sooner rather than later. In particular I’ll stay
working on Internet governance with IFLA, particularly public access, so please
do think of me if you need to reach out for anything libraries and IG.
<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-GB><o:p></o:p></SPAN> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-GB>So for now I’ll be moving to my personal
email address: <A>stuartjameshamilton@gmail.com</A> Please don’t hesitate to get
in touch!<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-GB><o:p></o:p></SPAN> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-GB>See you all soon,<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-GB><o:p></o:p></SPAN> </P>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-GB><o:p></o:p></SPAN> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-GB>PS: IFLA has a new Manager of Policy and
Advocacy, Stephen Wyber, who is a great guy and a great contact for all your
international library needs. He can be found at <A>Stephen.wyber@ifla.org</A>
