Good afternoon to the MCLS community, and I hope you’re doing well.
Many of you have sent kind messages following our dear colleague Debbi Schaubman’s recent passing, and we at MCLS appreciate your kindness as we mourn this major loss to the library community.
Many have experienced first-hand how Debbi made a huge difference for libraries, not just across the MCLS community, but also nationally and internationally. We’re creating a tribute page for Debbi on our website,
and invite you to share your stories of working with and knowing her. Please visit https://mcls.org/debbi-tribute and
share your story by February 15. We’ll compile the stories we receive, and can let you know when our tribute page is live.
With my thanks again, on behalf of the MCLS staff who worked so closely with Debbi and benefited from her experience, knowledge, wisdom, care, and so much more,
Scott
