managed a library which provides resources to clients living over a 580,000
square kilometre area, some even in WA and SA. I was Co-Convenor of the
ALIA Biennial Conference, held in Alice Spring in 2008. I have had the
privilege of working with some truly amazing people, both in the public library
and in Alice Springs. There are over 11 libraries in Alice Springs, and
the library network is very strong here. Everyone in Alice Springs has a
story to tell. That can take time, just talking to people!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
