I had the honor of being awarded a “Presidential Certificate of Appreciation” by outgoing AALL President, Keith Ann Stiverson,  at the Annual Meeting of the American Association of Law Libraries Meeting in Chicago on July 18th.

The award recognized “dedication to serving the profession since 2011 through her blog, Dewey B Strategic and for the hard work that distinguisher her, resulting in singular contributions to AALL and to the profession.”

It certainly was my intention to highlight the value of information professionals when I launched the Dewey B Strategic in 2011. I could not have foreseen the speed with which the economics of law and emerging technologies would transform the competitive landscape.  We face unprecedented threats as well as unprecedented opportunities for those who seize the challenge.

My thanks to Keith Ann Stiverson and AALL for the honor of this recognition to Dewey B Strategic.
