Abstract

“Good morning, this is Vienna calling”. The temptation was strong to ask Vienna for the votes of the Austrian jury, but I remembered in time that this was not the Eurovision Song Contest, but the IFLA Information Desk and this was my first call. It was only Friday, the desk was still being organised, the exhibition did not begin until Sunday and the Conference proper not until Monday. However, the enquiries were already beginning to trickle in. This one turned out to be a cancellation from a delegate, so she was referred to the Registration Desk.
