I has been a week since we arrinved in Milan last Saturday. We are all busy with meetings (Wording Group and Standing Committe meetings) and open sessions.
Translators for IFLA Express and simultaneous interpreters and also very tired. It is not easy for these young girls to do so much work in a short period of time. Since they have done it for several IFLA conferences and have got experiences, I do not have to spend to much time in taking care of them.
Today is the last of the conference, and I will finish my meetings at about 7 o'clock in the evening.

WLIC in Milan
Today is the second day of the WLIC (IFLA General Conference) in Milan. The city of Milan is not so big as I imagined before. The convention center is also not so big. The auditorium can accommodate about 2000 people, which can not include all the participants, I think. Sometimes, the meeting rooms are very small, and there are not enough chairs for the audience.
Although there are are volunteers outside meeting rooms, I sometimes find it difficult to ask for more chairs.
At first, there was no free water in meeting rooms, but since the second day, we are very happy to have it. In the first day immediately after the Opening Ceremony, we were very surprised to have a free lunch, which we had never had before.
