<div style="font-family: Consolas;">Hi,</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">The first ever Library Fight Club meeting is this Thursday 17 December 6pm upstairs at Rosie O’Grady’s, Northbridge.</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">Come, buy a drink, take umbrage with or offer unconditional support to the statement :</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;"> "WE ARE DONE BEING LIBRARIANS. NOBODY SHOULD HAVE “LIBRARIAN” IN THEIR JOB TITLE !"</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">Please RSVP today to Petra Dumbell at <a href="mailto:petra.dumbell@postgrad.curtin.edu.au">petra.dumbell@postgrad.curtin.edu.au</a>. </div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">We know the timing is tricky, so if you can’t make Thursday, but are interested in future Library Fight Clubs, or have a suggestion for a future topic, please let us know..</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">More information below…</div>

<div style="font-family: Consolas;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">*What?s this?*</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">A meeting of library people to discuss hot topics, learn from the </div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">discussion and put new ideas and concepts to the test. We will find all </div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">the arguments and counter-arguments around a topic and voice opinions </div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">that might be unpopular but will force us to analyse and rethink current </div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">practises.</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">Everyone who wants a say can have one, and we hope that everyone who </div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">attends will have a go at giving some kind of opinion ? whether sensible </div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">or outlandish, whether you agree with it or not. Sometimes arguing </div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">against what you believe clarifies why you actually believe it. Or you </div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">could even find you change your mind.</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">Library people (as everyone else) can get stuck in an echo chamber of </div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">the same inoffensive conversations, and Library Fight Club will stop all </div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">the niceties and get discussions going.</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">Everybody welcome, bring your non-library friends!!</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">Of course, we don’t talk about Library Fight Club, but we may tweet/blog </div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">it if anyone non-local is interested. Let us know.</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">*When is it on?*</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">The first meeting is on the 17th of December, at 6pm at the upstairs </div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">room of Rosie O'Grady's in Northbridge. RSVP to </div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;"><a href="mailto:petra.dumbell@postgrad.curtin.edu.au">petra.dumbell@postgrad.curtin.edu.au</a> by the 14th of December.</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">This is a _free _event, but we are expected to buy a few drinks from the </div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">bar downstairs.</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas;">*What will we fight about at the first meeting?*</div>
