In Bathurst, New Brunswick, another splendid library,
the Smurfit-Stone, in the Centennial building (constructed
for the Winter Olympics less than a decade ago)...
...invited me to talk on Tuesday.
This library had set up a display, seen here with
me and my grandson, James, who sold books.
Jennifer Iannuzzelli came from Head Office in
Cambellton to help other staff and to introduce me.
Diane Gauthier, a library clerk, was also
instrumental in the gathering.
They set up the talk in the adjacent Council
Chambers, where I obviously enjoyed myself.
I was interviewed for the local paper, The Northern
Light, by a dynamic intern, Alex Vietinghoff.
After the morning launch and talk (at which we sold
a lot of books) we were taken to lunch at an unusual
and rather splendid café with a colourful proprietor, Lorne.
