Sally Burdon, ILAB President in a message to all ILAB booksellers worldwide on 6 April 2020:
"As a result of the rapid spread of the Corona Virus we are all now experiencing unprecedented and ever-changing living and business environments. Our sympathies go out to all those whose health has been directly or indirectly affected by it. Some colleagues have already gone through severe health problems, others are still not well. We wish them all a fast return to full health.
ILAB will do everything in its power to keep affiliates up to date on relevant events and information as it comes to light.
ILAB is here and listening – we want to help! Like you the ILAB Committee are uncertain as to what is going to emerge in the new world as a result of the impact of COVID-19, how long the current situation will continue or what the results will be, but we want to assure you that we are all working to support you through these testing times.
You can contact me, any member of the ILAB committee or Angelika Elstner at any time!
We will get through this together. On the bright side there will undoubtedly be some new ideas and opportunities that become clear, no doubt we will learn new skills and coping strategies during this time and in the meantime Amor Librorum Nos Unit... Let’s support each other and we will emerge all the stronger for it."
