A: A hungover Librarian who can't see the keyboard for the keys: but still has fragments of MGMT, Feist & Ella Fitzgerald swimming in her head from a marathon 4 hour DJ session. She blipped, do you? [Blip.fm/librarian][1]

** SCHREIBMASCHINEN-CAFE ** is GO!
The plan: Jeden Mittwoch kiddies.
We'll trial our first week with an 8-10pm session, starting _this_ week, and discuss with our patrons/soon-to-be VPLs extending and shifting hours as the weeks extend by...since, as we believe we clearly state in our Library [Basic Beliefs and Core Purposes][3], as well as [Guiding Principles][4], we "view the Library as a dynamic system requiring continuous evaluation and adjustment in order to provide the flexibility to accommodate changing geo-spatial, existential, post-structural and individual Member and Designated Library Authority demands"
because by...
"Recognising that learning and life resources can consist of a broad and expanding array of traditional and contemporary tools ranging from basic scrawled or nearly illegible handwritten texts such as that which the Designated Library Authority's mother produces as a medical Dr, through to printed text and digital electronic media and formats we can not yet articulate, the Library exists as a structure which enables it to provide the most comprehensive, efficient, flexible and Fluxible integrated resources and services"
and so...
"The Library offers point-of-use instruction, personal assistance and hindrance when required, in conducting research in the Library and accessing the Library at all times when it is open at convenient and inconvenient hours and locations except when it is conveniently closed."
Similarly, our clear [Staff Anal Retention Policies][5] underscore this same commitment:
"The Library Staff shall be organised in a way that permits easy and rapid communication for the interchange of ideas.
The Library Staff shall consist of one.
This one shall be known as a Library Officer or Librarian."
So here's TIPL herself with the news...

And a bit about the place itself "Dieser macht in der Guts-Muths-Straße 47 in Leipzig ein Schreibmaschinen-Café. Im Eingangsbereich des Cafés stehen in einem Regal zahlreiche Schreibmaschinen, die mensch sich zum schreiben mit in das Café nehmen kann. Jeden Mittwoch Abend ist das Café dann geöffnet und es werden Schreibmaschinen-Sessions gemacht. Das heißt, dass sich die Leute zusammensetzen und schreiben, dabei ein Getränk zu sich nehmen, sich austauschen, reden, abgucken und sich von der Umgebung inspirieren lassen. Oft finden auch spontan Schreib-Sessions statt." From the blog [aergernis][7]
What this does _also_ mean is that we're flexibly fluctuating on over at **Die Kassette** \- as you may recall we've been Jeden Mittwoch-ing there, and, _obviously_ despite apparent appearances to the contrary, **we do not currently operate the facility to exist in two places at exactly the same time**. Note we say _currently_, as this _is_ something we're working towards, heh.
Here's TIPL again with that news...
![][8]
So, all in all it goes like this:
**_Jeden_** **Dienstag @ [Die Kassette][9] * Oktober 7 & 14 --> 15:00-20:00 hrs * ab Oktober 21 --> 17:00-22:00hrs**
[Map: http://www.tinyurl.com/wherelibrary6][10]
und
**_Jeden_** **Mittwoch @ SCHREIBMASCHINEN-CAFE * ab Oktober 8 --> 20:00-22:00 hrs**.
Wo zur Hölle ist ...? **Gutsmuthsstraße 47, 04177 Leipzig: Germany, Alles klar! Map link: <http://tinyurl.com/wherelibrary8>**

We've been signing up Leipzig bodies like, er, a serial librarian! Mitt our grand gummistempeltechnik! This means that . . .
**Heilige Scheisse!**
Not only has Leipzig zoomed past Amsterdam, in the top-of-the-library-pops membership chart . . .
