<p class="MsoNormal">Agreed with the sentiments expressed on this thread and I especially echo what Elena says below. Knowing that I could always rely on your expertise has been truly invaluable to me. You always promptly jumped right in to help troubleshoot
and very often provided unique, creative solutions to what I wanted to accomplish. I appreciate your leadership through big transitions, such as Voyager to Alma and SMS/PPMS to ctcLink.

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Just a head’s up to all, I’ve let the governance committee know that I won’t be looking to renew my employment contract with WACTCLC when my current contract expires at the end of June.<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’ve been working on library systems since 2004, through three different organizations, and with a specific focus for the past decade on Alma/Primo. So, needless to say, I’m feeling ready for some fresh and different horizons.

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Meanwhile, the Alma / Primo project is now 5 years into its existence, ctcLink will (finally) be live at all institutions as of May, and (hopefully) COVID will shortly be in the rearview mirror for all of us.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">All those things combined provide an excellent time for the consortium (basically, all of you) to consider the next five years for the Alma / Primo project, and what happens now. I’m sure the governance committee will be considering the
position I currently hold, and what the next iteration of the position, and the consortium, might look like. And it’s a great opportunity for participating institutions to consider your needs and desires regarding the position and the consortium.
<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m sure there will be opportunities for feedback and discussions the next 5 years and beyond. So, I’d suggest to all to begin thinking about what kinds of support your library needs or wants going forward, and what else you might wish
from a shared effort like this one.<o:p></o:p></p>
