In a message circulated today to the ICTP community, ICTP Director K.R. Sreenivasan announced officially that Lucio Visintin has been appointed Acting Head of Library. He will replace Maria Fasanella who will be retiring at the end of July. In his message, Sreenivasan wrote that “it will be difficult to replace Mariuccia whose cumulative services to ICTP have been nothing short of monumental. …We will not lose her experience and enthusiastic spirit: she will remain in some capacity within ICTP.” Visintin has a 25-year-long work experience at the ICTP Library. Sreenivasan is certain that under Visintinâ€™s management, “the library will continue to remain a special place while reaching higher levels of usefulness to our community.”
