Rest in peace, Rubén Bonifaz Nuño (1923-2013). I have attempted an English translation of poem number 42 from “Los demonios y los días” (1956). The original Spanish below. From the sadness that falls down, from the pain that tires me, from my office, from the mess of my room, from these lonely man’s blankets, from this paper, I extend my hand.

Two quotes dated 4 March 2009, handrwitten in one of my notebooks: -John Maggs, “Conservation priorities: a bookseller’s view,” in Petherbridge (1987) Conservation of Library and Archive Materials and the Graphic Arts , p. 232. -Christopher Clarkson, “Conservation priorities: a library conservator’s view,” in Petherbridge (1987) Conservation of Library and Archive Materials and the Graphic Arts , p. 236.

“Duty Calls”, by Randall Munroe (XKCD) “ It’s a conversation, not a lecture“, was the title I had given to this post of mine when I submitted it to the Guardian Higher Education Network back in September 2011. It seems like quite a long time ago now.
