It has been great knowing you, Brigid, and serving the media collection at San 
Francisco State University.  Your plans sound wonderful, exploring California 
and the world through Geocaching, and moving back to your home state of 
Missouri.  I especially like the plan to fly to New Zealand for a second summer 
each year.  Excellent plan!

In 1970-71 a friend and I did that very thing, with a summer here in the US, a 
summer in Australia (Nov-March), and another summer back in the US.  I 
recommend it!

Subject: [Videolib] Goodbye Good People

Dear VideoLib,

After 33 years as staff at San Francisco State University and 15 wonderful 
years as a media librarian, I will retire on December 30, 2012. Listening in on 
and occasionally contributing to the discussions, arguments and general 
enlightenment that is VideoLib has been great, but as of the end of December my 
San Francisco State University e-mail address disappears.

I, however, will not. Current plans are to explore California and the world 
through Geocaching (http://www.geocaching.com/). In time I will move to 
Missouri, where I grew up, where the cost of living is lower and where 
government-issued pensions like mine are not taxed. When the snow starts to fly 
I will board a plane to New Zealand for a second summer every year.

Life is good. Wishing you all the best.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues 
relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, 
preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and 
related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective 
working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication 
between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and 
distributors.
