Acceptance Speeches & Thank you!
Hello! I created this page first, as a way to express my deep appreciation for all of the help, support and encouragement I have received for many years. Second, I wanted to thank so very many people for sharing their thoughts and ideas with me and many others. I have received two great honors thanks to all of you--the ACRL Instruction Section's 2014 Miriam Dudley Instruction Librarian Award, and the 2015 Distinguished Alumni Award, bestowed by the UCLA Library & Information Science Alumni Association (LISAA)--thank you, one and all!!
