Shout-out for Beatrice Downey

Beatrice Downey

Bea recently co-presented "Conducting Pop-Up User Research That Moves a Project Forward" with me at the TRLN 2023 Annual Meeting. That presentation was about a larger-than-usual user research study for which she willingly and capably took the lead when I (the original organizer) had to be out sick. She ensured that everyone knew their roles, split up the set-up work, and dealt ably with multiple curveballs. Bea's leadership, organizational skills, and sheer competence are a boon to the Libraries!
