Bio
Colin Sanderson
Kasia is a highly valued colleague as the Polish Associate of the Artiscience Library at Summerhall, one of several such national and regional associates, especially for her communication and language skills and not least from her sunny disposition. I encourage anyone professionally to engage with Kasia, and particularly any Polish-speaking persons interested in relations between the arts and sciences and in building Scottish-Polish cross-cultural links in this field.
