Shout-outs From My Colleagues
Shout-outs are kind words from Libraries staff to other Libraries staff for going out of their way to be extra awesome at their job.
This team planned a Discovery Retreat for 30+ Libraries staff members. The full-day event was engaging, fruitful, and fun. It was wonderful to discuss exciting new ideas with my colleagues. I appreciate the meticulous, thoughtful planning that went into making the retreat happen, and I look forward to the next chapter of Libraries innovation!

Simply put, Web Team solves problems, and fast. An increasing number of Libraries departments are producing different kinds of content across different platforms. Web Team has been adept at not only enabling departments to produce new kinds of content, but also helping External Relations leverage and re-use that content. The team has been incredibly responsive to (and patient with!) out-of-left-field, what-if questions by thinking through the implications of back-end changes from both a technology perspective and a consistency one. They respond quickly with solutions and implementations informed by the Libraries' overall mission, rather than playing defense against changes to the complex infrastructure that they have to maintain. Web Team is always helpful, thoughtful, reasonable, and fast.
