Dear Readers,
With our travel guides and posts about international conferences, you may have noticed that we have had an American and European focus here at LL. Now, we’re expanding to the Middle East.
I’m very happy to say that I have accepted a position as the Technical Services Librarian at Northwestern University in Qatar and I begin my new job on November 1. The campus is located in Doha, a fascinating city of one million people and the capital of Qatar. I’m super excited about my new job and about living in the Middle East!
As you can imagine, I have had so many things to organize over the last month that I’ve fallen a bit behind on the LL postings. Now I’m back and ready to blog about all things related to the librarian lifestyle.
My next post will be about how I found this position, so stay tuned.
Yours in library love,
Karen Holt
