A Brief but Intense Job At Work in the Main Press Center Libary at the 2004 Olympics

摘要

In summer 2004, Athens hosted the world's most significant athletic event, the Olympic Games, which returned home to Athens for the first time since they were revived in 1896. Among the people who contributed to the games' success were volunteers whoworked day and night to help stage the Athens Olympic Games perfectly. Two libraries staffed by officials and volunteers operated during the games, one in the Main Press Center (MPC) and the other in the Olympic Village. As a volunteer librarian at the MPC library, I had an unforgettable experience for the 17 days of the Olympic Games last August.
