Hi everyone,
When putting together my update for our Annual Meeting, I focus on the three elements of our mission: education, collections, and connections. This past year we also responded to a pandemic and completed our five-year Plan of Service. It’s been quite a journey!
As I reviewed the numbers and statistics of our activities over the past year (cataloging, ILL, digitization, continuing education, web statistics, etc.), it made me proud to lead this organization. Thank you to the CDLC staff for all of their work and all they accomplished, particularly since March 17, 2020, when we stepped out of the office for what I naively thought would be a couple of weeks. Thank you also to our members for recognizing the staff with positive comments at member forums and on the Plan of Service survey.
I also want to acknowledge the CDLC Board of Trustees for their confidence in me leading the organization and trusting my judgment and decision-making over the last year. I greatly appreciate their collective support, expertise, and insight.
As the daffodils bloom and the vaccinations continue, I’m looking forward to brighter days and to seeing you once again in person (well, that may be premature!). Until then, we hope to see you online. Wishing you good health and a Happy Spring!
