The ballot papers arrived for CILIP's President elect yesterday. There are two public librarians standing and one health librarian. How I voted is between me and the proverbial box, but I will make one point: it doesn't do much for the profession's standing when one candidate submits a manifesto which includes:
- a clumsy, doubly-split infinitive
- a series of commas inserted in bizarre placesfor no reasona at all
- two sentences without verbs
Forgive me if I sound like Miss Truss, but some mistake surely? The charitable explanations are either that someone substituted an earlier draft for a final version, or there's been sabotage.
