Subject: American Libraries looks at retirement
Date: Wed, 23 Aug 2006 16:09:00 -0500
From: Gordon Flagg <[log in to unmask]>
American Libraries is planning a special section on retirement for our
November issue, and were looking for insights about retirement from
librarians who have recently retired, who have been enjoying retirement
for many years, or who are just contemplating the prospect.
Were soliciting 150-word entries presenting librarians thoughts
on such aspects of retirement as things they wish theyd known before
retiring; what surprised them most about retirement; what they miss most
about the workplace; how to continue to play a role in the profession;
and anything else that might be of value to others looking toward
retirement. Were particularly interested in hearing observations that
pertain exclusively to the library profession.
Please reply to [log in to unmask], and feel free to forward this message
to anyone you know who might want to respond. I probably wont be
replying to or otherwise confirming receipt of responses until we start
actively working on the issue in mid-September. And thanks in advance
for your help.
