After we graduated from National Taiwan University, we came to the United States to continue our graduate studies. At that time, Library Science was one of the hottest field to be considered. Cecilia was admitted to the Library School in University of Illinois, and I was admitted in the University of Wisconsin. When I got married in 1962, she was one of the few friends who could attend my wedding.
Then, we both worked in Chicago! Since I was the first who had a home in Chicago, many old friends, and classmates who passed Chicago to continue their journeys to various parts of the US, would stay in my humble house. I always invited Cecilia to join us in those gatherings!
In 1983, I was lucky enough to get an offer from the Library of Congress! At that time, Cecilia had an appartment in DC, I stayed with her while working in the LC during the weekdays, and trying hard to find a place for my family during the weekends!
In 1989, I got an offer from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. I worked there for more than12 years. That was a brand new university, I was the first one to report to work in the Library. The workload was hectic. As a result, I lost contacts with many old friends in the US!
