Jet, not trying to be obvious, but the process simply went like this. I consider it a serendipitous collaboration of TLTE participants:
Ocm? posted about his local East Lake Library; I mentioned that I've always thought about working in a library; Ocm? replied that the people working in his place didn't seem happy but he thinks he'd also like that kind of work; this reminded me of a link I saved about the greatest libraries in the world, including the the Royal Library of Alexandria which was the largest and most significant great library of the ancient world, built around 3rd century BC; but when I looked for my link, I remembered that I have that one on my work computer not at home; so I started hunting around for other "great library" information and stumbled upon the fact that the oldest one in Europe was not far from where I was born. The rest is history, so to speak.
I didn't previously add the story of when I was in elementary school and my most beloved girl friend Christine lived across the street from our local library, so needless to say, I would go there as often as possible. This was the same library where a year or so later, another little beauty named Maria, the only Italian girl in our class, raced and beat me around the library. It wasn't even close, she was fast!
