It is very hard to imagine the Order to Delivery team without you. Your expertise in all things lending and TRLN Direct will not be easily replaced, but even more difficult will be to find another team member with your thoughtfulness and consideration of others. I feel lucky to have worked with you for the past two years, and I know you will do great things in your new job and beyond!]]> 2022-02-07 14:58:57 UTC https://padlet.com/mpduffy/p6p8ve4puqyjhhhm/wish/2033267328 mpduffy https://padlet.com/mpduffy/p6p8ve4puqyjhhhm/wish/2033422935 2022-02-07 15:58:45 UTC https://padlet.com/mpduffy/p6p8ve4puqyjhhhm/wish/2033422935 https://padlet.com/mpduffy/p6p8ve4puqyjhhhm/wish/2033944140 I believe Dan Hawkins was your first supervisor when you joined us in 2012. I had the pleasure of working directly with you starting in 2014 before you moved to Tripsaver. I think I remember that even after that was announced in mid-2015, you still held overnight together until we filled positions. I will always be grateful for that flexibility and commitment to public service. And then the Tripsaver chapter began! You've had so much impact on our library users, and you've been a great colleague to all of us. Thank you for that. And I hope the next thing is engaging, interesting, and supportive. All my best!

I remember meeting you at Hill years ago and immediately feeling like I wanted to know you better! You were so warm and interesting. It's been great to get to know you over the years, and I've immensely enjoyed peeking into your world on IG. I'm excited to know you're moving on to a new gig you feel good about, that will give you new challenges and things to learn, and that allows the flexibility to work remotely you desire and that will be healthy for you. You'll have some great fuzzy co-workers at home :) Please stay in touch! best wishes, Kim]]> 2022-02-08 16:55:33 UTC https://padlet.com/mpduffy/p6p8ve4puqyjhhhm/wish/2035987505 klducket https://padlet.com/mpduffy/p6p8ve4puqyjhhhm/wish/2036009288 This is an intriguing book about a woman remembering back to the death of her sister while on vacation years earlier. Since the event took place while she was a young child, she is trying to piece together an understanding of what happened. It's well-written and takes on issues of class, race, and privilege as well as memory.]]> 2022-02-08 17:04:15 UTC https://padlet.com/mpduffy/p6p8ve4puqyjhhhm/wish/2036009288 https://padlet.com/mpduffy/p6p8ve4puqyjhhhm/wish/2038842934 Instead of getting a ring light for zoom calls, I sewed a small bonnet (tbh it looks like a shower cap) to slip over a desk lamp. It does a good job of diffusing the light! - anne]]> 2022-02-09 20:27:30 UTC https://padlet.com/mpduffy/p6p8ve4puqyjhhhm/wish/2038842934 https://padlet.com/mpduffy/p6p8ve4puqyjhhhm/wish/2038852186 Your new job sounds really exciting!

The characters feel like fully realized individuals, the universe is fantastically unique, and the dialogue is delightful.

Seriously though, I'm so excited for your new opportunity, it sounds amazing! You'll be horribly missed, but it sounds like you're going to have a blast!

Congratulations and good luck on your new endeavor. Glad to hear you'll still be around Raleigh!]]> 2022-02-13 20:53:49 UTC https://padlet.com/mpduffy/p6p8ve4puqyjhhhm/wish/2044951905 https://padlet.com/mpduffy/p6p8ve4puqyjhhhm/wish/2046028455 Congrats Friend!!!

Going to miss you, but I know I'll see you around. You, Christina, and I need to get together for some hangs here and there (and one day we'll be able to get some movies in like we did in the past). Wishing you the absolute best with the next steps. You will be missed!

Your job sounds so awesome.  Serious question... Can you take me with you?
