You, your colleagues and students are cordially invited to this years series of 'Looking at Children's Books' lectures by Brian Alderson. Brian is now 81 and we are trying to make sure that his deep knowledge of children's books and publishing is passed on to future generations so do please spread the word. The first talk starts at 5:00; thereafter they will begin at 5:30. All this year's lectures will be based on the archival holdings in Seven Stories. The location will be Seminar Room 152 on Level One (basement) of the Robinson Library. You should come to the main entrance of the building. The nearest car park is John Dobson St. The Robinson is opposite the Great North Museum; there are maps of the campus and the city here: http://www.ncl.ac.uk/about/visit/maps.htm. Hope to see you there.
