TML Conference - We are helping Harry Green, executive director of the TACIR set up a meeting on Monday afternoon during the TML conference. Harry wants to talk to city officials about their need to access state databases. It is part of the project Sally discussed Friday morning at our MTAS retreat. Please let me know the names of city managers, city recorders, mayors, and other city officials who you think might be interested in meeting with Harry during TML. Thanks.
Library Staff - The library recently replaced Barbara Pollard with Mike Fink. I thought you would be interested in some background information about him. Mike was born and raised in the Los Angeles suburb of Thousand Oaks, California. In 1994, he graduated from Brigham Young University with a degree in English and a minor in communications. At school he met and eventually married his wife, Oak Ridgian, Kelly Baker. Kelly is currently at UT earning her masters degree in Political Science. Besides reading, Mike enjoys trying to play the guitar and harmonica and is a self proclaimed Bob Dylan fanatic. Having been with the MTAS library as a student worker for 9 months, he is now full time as Library Specialist. Mike is also a genuinely friendly guy so please feel free to drop him a hello on the E-Mail sometime.
