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.
A big thank you to Troy, Beth and Danica for their help and advice on accessibility assessment of NC LIVE's subscription resources. Their guidance has been hugely beneficial in working on accessibility compliance for databases available to libraries across North Carolina. Also, a special shout-out to Troy for his time and expertise in reviewing VPATs!

I've learned so much from Beth, but the thing that stands out to me now as one of the best things about Beth is her strong emotional intelligence and positivity. She handles so many different things well and manages others' expectations better than most people I know. An example: just recently, she volunteered to help create a presentation about our Dryad data repository membership. Not only did she proactively do the intellectual labor of framing out the slides, but she also made it really easy and compelling to want to volunteer to co-present with her to share the findings from our first year as Dryad members. It was one of the best collaborations on a presentation I've had the opportunity to do in a while and I'm honored to have worked with Beth on this and many other facets of our work.
