Change is coming – a new job for me
There is no way to say this other than to just come out and say it.
Effective May 18th I will be the Digital Branch Manager of the Chattahoochee Valley Regional Library System. This is a new position they have created for the purpose of planning, building and managing the Digital Branch, its going to be a lot of fun (and hard work!) I’m excited, nervous and about 20 other emotions right now, but most of all I’m really looking forward to it!
For those of you looking at your atlas CVRLS is in Columbus, Georgia, which means I will be spending the next couple of weeks packing my things and relocating.







Wow! Congratulations.

Wow! Congratulations Ms. Newman! How I wish I would also be hired as Children’s Services Department Head in that same library. I am actually interested in joining the Chattahoochee Valley Libraries in Columbus, GA soon as I get luck as yours. I am really hoping for it…
