  11. Ich bin nun die stolze Inhaberin einer bis 2029 gültigen Bibliothekskarte für die #BritishLibrary. Da man auf alles nur vor Ort zugreifen kann, muss ich wohl wiederkommen. Außerdem habe ich heute den Garrick Ollivander* der englischen Bibliothekarsgemeinschaft kennengelernt. /13

    *Pardon für die Bezugnahme auf eine Figur aus dem Kopf von Ihr-wisst-schon-wer, aber … Ihr hättet ihn sehen müssen. Und Bibliothekar aus Berufung.

  19. Arrivée à #londres par l'Eurostar à Saint-Pancras, une cathédrale de briques à 2 pas de la #BritishLibrary
    L'hôtel est à #bloomsbury, pas très loin d'où a vécu #VirginiaWoolf et le groupe de Bloomsbury (photos à venir).
    Petit tour dans le quartier avec des rues arrondies typiques, comme ici à Cartwright Gardens.
