1. In Spain, the information professions are known as documentación, and include biblioteconomía (librarianship), archivística (archival studies) and museología (museology?) as well as, according to Wikipedia, documentación itself. That confuses me a lot, but I'm working on it.
2. There are a whole crapload of professional organizations here. The ones that seem most relevant to me at the moment are the Asociación Andaluza de Documentalistas and the Asociación Andaluza de Bibliotecarios, because they are specific to the autonomous community I live in. There are lots of other ones though, like ANABAD, FESABID and SEDIC. FESABID is having a conference in Zaragoza in May which I think I should attend, broken Spanish notwithstanding.
3. Info professionals in Spain don't find my story quite as impressive as I do.
4. It's unlikely that I'll find a job very quickly. I suppose the best thing to do would be to make myself known to some professionals around here, so that I don't seem to have come out of nowhere when a good opportunity actually comes up?
