Сайн байна уу, Энэрэлээ,
Сайн байна уу, ХТНС-ийн ажилтануудаа,

Энэ мөчөөс та бид бие биенээ таньж мэдэх, улмаар бие биенээсээ суралцах зайлшгүй суралцах хэрэгтэй байна.

Энэрэл нь Хотын нийтийн төв номын санд 2010-7-1 өдөр зочилж ирж, номын сангийн Захирал, Дэд захирал нартай уулзаж өөрийгөө танилцуулж, улмаар бие биедээ мэргэжлээрээ харилцан туслалцаж, хамтран ажиллахаар ярилцсан болно:
http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=305913&id=275646805200

Энэрэлээ, хариу имэйлдээ өөрийнхөө ажил, суралцсан сургуулийнхаа тухай манай номын санчдад товч бичихийг хүсье.

Бидний талаарх товч мэдээллийг дараах хаягуудаас авч, эчнээ танилцахыг хүсье.

Миний профайл: http://biznetwork.mn/profile/jbegzsuren

Бид ажлын цагаар Яахоо мессенжерийг байнга хэрэглэдэг тул дээрх Яахоогийн ID-уудыг мессенжерт ашиглаж болно.

Өнөөдөр бид бас нэг баяртай мэдээг хүлээж авлаа. Миний бие 10-р сарын 4-15-ны хооронд АНУ-ын Мериланд мужын Балтимори хотын Нийтийн номын санд туршлага судлахаар ажиллах боломжтой болоод байна. Энэ өдрөөс эхлэн виз, онгоцны билетээ хөөцөлдөж эхэлсэн. АНУ-ын ЭСЯамны Олон нийттэй харилцах албанаас энэ боломжийг олгож өгч, улмаар АНУ-Монголын номын санчдын туршлага солилцох арга хэмжээг тогтмолжуулах зорилготой байгаа юм байна.

Сайн байна уу, Энэрэл-ээ,

Надаас түрүүлж, эхлэж имэйл бичсэнд их баярлалаа. Монгол эх орондоо сайхан амраад, одоо шинэ ажил амьдралыг Голландад эхлүүлж байгаад баяр хүргэе.

Миний ажиллаж байгаа Д.Нацагдоржийн нэрэмжит Улаанбаатар хотын нийтийн төв номын сангийн Ном бүрдүүлэгч, Каталогч, Лавлагааны номын санч болон Бусад ном олголтын номын санчдын профайлыг өнөөдөр илгээж, танилцуулах арга хэмжээг эхний ээлжинд авна, харин цаашид номын санчид өөртэй тань байнгын холбоотой байхыг би зөвлөж ажиллая гэж бодож байна.

Саяхнаас Номын сангийн албан бичгүүдийг бид онлайн болгож байна:
http://biznetwork.mn/topic/show/19327/1

Номын сан бүртгэлийн төлбөр болон Гэрээр ном олгохдоо ном бүрээр хоног тутамд хураамж авдагийг өөрчлөх цаг болсон гэсэн хэлэлцүүлэг:

Мөн Монголын номын санчдын саналаа солилцох талбар - http://lis.byteact.com/ гэсэн форум бас байгааг уламжилъя.

Мөн өөрийн тань санаа бодлыг би байнга хүлээн авахад бэлэн гэдгээ илэрхийлье.
Эрүүл энх (-ийг Аз жаргал, Эд баялаг дагадаг шүү дээ :-) )-ийг хүсэн ерөөж,

Dear Begz,

Thanks for your updates.

Could you please send us your Cell number for easy contact?

we are putting a request to our Consular's Section for an expedited visa interview appointment, so we'll call you when we know the date and time of your interview.

please also make sure that your passport is up-to-date (valid at least for 6 months after Oct 04) otherwise it would have to be extended before the visa interview.

Also, please feel free to get in touch with your Baltimore host family and the library people about your housing and internship details. I’m not sure if you have already contacted them, but Cc'd above are the e-mail addresses of the Library contact Jill and the landlady of the host family Angela.
