EXCHANGE OPPORTUNITY. ALA has recently received an inquiry from the French 
government about a possible exchange of librarians to begin this fall. They 
would like to send two English-speaking librarians, one from a medical library 
in Limoges and the other from a science library in Marseilles, to work in an 
American library for one year. In return, the government would like to have 
two French-speaking librarians from the U.S. to work in these libraries in 
France. The salaries of the French librarians will be paid by their government 
but because the franc is currently weak, they would prefer to send their li­
brarians to an area where the cost of living is not high or to a -university 
where they could obtain inexpensive housing. If your library is interested in 

setting up an exchange arrangement or is willing to host a visiting science or 
medical librarian for one year, contact Sandy Whiteley at (312) 944-6780.

EXCHANGE OPPORTUNITY. ALA has recently received an inquiry from the French 
government about a possible exchange of librarians to begin this fall. They 
would like to send two English-speaking librarians, one from a medical library 
in Limoges and the other from a science library in Marseilles, to work in an 
American library for one year. In return, the government would like to have 
two French-speaking librarians from the U.S. to work in these libraries in 
France. The salaries of the French librarians will be paid by their government
but because the franc is currently weak, they would prefer to send their li­
brarians to an area where the cost of living is not high or to a -university 
where they could obtain inexpensive housing. If your library is interested in 

setting up an exchange arrangement or is willing to host a visiting science or 
medical librarian for one year, contact Sandy Whiteley at (312) 944-6780.
