Want to be the new Editor for base line?

  • 1.  Want to be the new Editor for base line?

    Posted Feb 10, 2023 12:46 PM

    For this year, 2023, I will continue as Editor of base line until the December issue. After ten years, I would like to pass the Editor's torch on to another individual that will take this publication into the future and to the next level.

    It has been a privilege and honor to serve in this capacity to the membership of MAGIRT and to promote our corner of the library profession.

    Being Editor has been a very satisfying challenge and experience for me and I have had the wonderful pleasure of compiling the news and information for the MAGIRT membership as well as communicating with those contributing content. So, it's been a good run for me, but I feel it's now time to turn it over to someone else.

    If you are interested, I will gladly discuss with you the duties of this position.
