WSL’s Work on Hard Times Recognized Nationally

WSL’s Work on Hard Times Recognized Nationally

From the desk of Rand Simmons

Pardon us if we pat ourselves on the back.

This week Library Journal recognized the work that the Washington State Library has been doing to help Washington libraries find the resources to cope with the hard economic times. More and more users are flooding in to libraries to search and apply for jobs online and to prepare resumes.

The article also recognizes our work to help Washington libraries understand and take advantage of federal stimulus funding. Although I must admit that we supplied the information for the article (at the author’s invitation), it was rewarding to have a prominent national library journal focus on us. But what really matters is what you — Washington library staff — think. We’d love to receive your comments: good, bad, or ugly …

… well, mostly good.

  1. How fabulous that your work has been recognized in LJ! I sincerely appreciate the work you have done pulling these resources into one convenient place. It would have been impossible to keep track of it on my own, not that I have a handle on it now, but at least I’m not completely clueless.

  2. I second Pat’s post. This is fabulous. Thanks WSL, you just saved me hours of work to compile these resources on my own. We will put a link on our homepage and an article in the local newspaper.
