Library dean search
在接下来的两周内，三位大学图书馆院长的候选人将访问校园。 Each one of them presents excellent credentials and backgrounds, and I am excited at their upcoming visits. The search committee has done great work in coming up with this list of finalists.
In addition to meetings with various groups¬Swem staff, deans, search committee members, administrators, etc.¬each candidate will also hold a forum open to the entire campus community. This is a very busy time of year, but I hope you will be able to attend these sessions. The times and dates for these sessions are:
Lynn Sutton Thursday, April 22, Tidewater A @ 3:30
Valerie Hotchkiss Tuesday, April 27, Tidewater A @ 3:30
Mark Jacobs Thursday, April 29, Tidewater A @ 3:30
For more information, including the candidates' bios and CVs and a link to a "candidate evaluation form," please go to /librarydeansearch/. I invite your comments, as they will be valuable to the President and me in selecting the next Dean of University Libraries. Please note that although the evaluation form requires a login with W&M, this is only to insure that it is limited to members of the W&M community; the comments themselves are anonymous. Thank you for your participating in this important process.
