Our February 2011 Spotlight Co-Winner is originally from Mountain View, Missouri and is the Education/Psychology Librarian at Ellis Library: Everett Wayne Barnes!
Wayne has been with MU Libraries for 30 years, the very institution where he obtained his MLS. Prior to that, he obtained his BA in History from School of the Ozarks. Post-MLS, Wayne has taken courses in French, Portuguese, and has also obtained an additional Master’s degree in Public Administration. Très bonne!
When he’s not at the reference desk, Wayne enjoys learning more about business opportunities, design, logistics or relaxing with a good sudoku puzzle. In a movie about Wayne’s life, expect to see Patrick Stewart starring as this MU Librarian. Said movie will likely be set in Las Vegas–Wayne’s pick for the coolest place he’s ever been.
