Gen: Famous leaders in the library field

[Jennifer Smith <SMIJE@PDC.K12.WI.US>]

Today I received a memo from our National Honors Society and Student =
Council outlining their plan to promote leadership.  Their idea is to give =
descriptions of famous people in each "academic field" and sponsor a =
contest for students to search to identify the leaders.

The only visible "leader" that I can think of is Dewey (whom they should =
know), however group would like them to be rather challenging--not an "ask =
a teacher" type.  The leaders can be local, state, national, or worldwide; =
dead or alive.

I thougth we might have an interesting discussion about famous leaders in =
our field.  Can you give me some help?  TIA
