Greetings LM_NETters! Last, but not least, I'm anxious to get to know all of you better! My "roots" in library-land began in 1994 at the ERIC Clearinghouse on Information and Technology at SU, Syracuse. Mike Eisenberg was the ERIC/IT Clearinghouse Director at that time, and I was the ERIC/IT publications coordinator/manager, responsible for production of ERIC/ IT annual monographs and digest series. I also helped to develop marketing materials for AskERIC and GEM (Gateway to Educational Materials). One day, Mike asked if I'd look over a new newsletter he planned to print for a special project called The Big6. The Big6 grew into a full-time job for me, and I've learned a lot about information literacy and the library world through my work at ERIC/IT and with the Big6. I'm now Executive Manager for Big6 Associates on a full- time basis which involves a role in most Big6 activities -- workshop coordination, website management, eNewsletter editorial work, author and liaison with Big6 partners, and central communications office. It's a very rewarding job. All in all, library-media professionals have influenced my work for more than 13 years -- elementary, middle, high school, and LIS professors who mentor students and aspiring librarians. I'm inspired by the exciting, brilliant minds in the library world and enjoy the challenges and triumphs associated with learning and teaching library skills every day. Currently, I work in isolation too. I understand how valuable it is to stay connected to colleagues and friends online. Rest assured, LM_NET and EL_Announce will continue to provide many of the same services you depend on -- especially recipe day!! Did I mention cooking is my hobby? Michelle, Blythe and I will work to keep LM_NET focused on issues that are important to you. We also plan to keep Mike and Peter nearby as advisors and hope they will be occasional contributors to the online conversations as well. We know they sincerely care about all of you! So - here we go! Michelle, Blythe and I are ready to provide you the best teacher-librarian listservs, LM_NET and EL_Announce, because you deserve the best! Sincerely, Sue Susann L. Wurster Big6 Associates, LLC., Executive Manager Fayetteville, NY 13066 sue.wurster@gmail.com -------------------------------------------------------------------- Please note: All LM_NET postings are protected by copyright law.
