“The Library Management Training Online Course and Guest Speaker Program allowed me to grow more as a leader when I didn't think it was possible. I gained new perspectives on specific areas I thought I knew all too well while giving new knowledge I did not know I needed.” -- Travis J. Givens, Head of Access Services.
