Memories

I was asked by my  former colleagues of the Public Library to search in my archives for old photos.

A former collegue says goodbye and they want to give her a photoalbum with some memories. I have a whole cabinet filled with more than 60 photoalbums! So I spent the whole afternoon watching old photos of holidays,  family and all kind of other things. Some people think librarians are a bit dusty people with their nose in books, but nothing is less true. This one is at a weddingparty of a colleague who worked in the music department. We sang a song for the bride with LP covers on our heads. It was the time of the LP, long playing record albums. I am the one in blue.

We also had nice outings with all the staff from cleaning ladies to director to an open air museum. You can see a Library was a woman's business at that time, we were very emancipated with a female manager director as well. I am the one in black and white at the left.
