Bruges
Tough day yesterday
Today we are going to see Bruges library and then Austin library, have lunch there, try to hunt
Yeah, people are, I would say, seems they slept very well
And, yeah, people are ready to go
Just yesterday was pretty bad technically
Not only did we have headwind and I bet maybe 10 range and we had 11 punctures, can you imagine, 11 punctures
Many questions popping up from the participants
One question I really appreciate and that it's coming more and more than I hear is, is there anything I can do to help?
This is really great

So we are here in Bruges public library
This is a library for Lenin library, a big public library
We have this main library here and 12 branch libraries in other parts of town
And we just saw the library here which is lovely
And of course we saw the chocolate factory right next door, home made with family-owned chocolate
Yeah, so I want to welcome you in Bruges

So today it's Sunday and we took off from the hostel and went into Bruges
Navigating among all the tourists and the old houses and stuff
And we visited the public library in Bruges and stayed there for a while and then we cycled back
And now we're in Oskamp visiting another public library
And having some food, some drinks and some discussions about culture

Well I'm Hilde, I'm from Belgium
I work in an academic library in Heng, it's called the Media Arts and Design Faculty
And I'm a solo librarian, so I do all the work myself
And when I tell people, they say, what? How is it possible?
So here I hope somebody hears me and sends me a good helper
This is my third time in cycling for libraries
The first time I could come because of my boss at that moment allowed me to come to cycling for libraries
And I'm still very lucky that at my work they see it as a surplus for my work
And they support me for coming here so I can do it in working time
And cycling for libraries makes me a better librarian, so I'm happy they see it
