Barker to Serve as Interim Head of Reference

I am pleased to announce the appointment of Anne Barker as Interim Head of the Ellis Reference Department effective September 1, 2013.  Anne will provide leadership for the department while the search for a new Head of Ellis Reference takes place.  I am grateful that Anne has agreed to accept this appointment.  We are fortunate to have someone with her experience to oversee this transition.  To ensure that the Reference department is not left short-staffed during this interim, we will be hiring a temporary general reference librarian as soon as possible to cover many of Anne’s current responsibilities.
