Dear Friends,
This is to let you all know that I will be leaving my job as Chief Librarian of the Jerwood Library at Trinity College of Music on 16 December to take up an appointment in the New Year at Longleat, where I will have the care of an outstanding private collection of some 44,000 rare books.
It's a big change, as I have been in the music side of the business for over 20 years and at Trinity for almost four. But the rare stuff has always had a huge attraction for me and I'm going to find it interesting and challenging to develop a new area of expertise.
Those of you who know Roger (Firman) and myself personally will understand the motivation for moving to a job much nearer home (Milborne Port, on the Somerset/Dorset border), which means that we can live together in the same place all the time. I will not miss the commuting!
I expect my job to be advertised in the CILIP vacancies supplement and www.jobs.ac.uk soon. I'll also try to get it advertised to this list.
With best wishes,
Rosemary
