February 2022 Librarian of the Month

by Jessie Zairo on Feb 21, 2022

Every month ByWater Solutions recognizes a librarian that has made an impact on their library and community. We are happy to announce the February 2022 Librarian of the Month is Tara Wood, User Experience Manager, SWAN Library Services in Illinois.

Tara was nominated by Mark Noble of the ByWater Solutions Aspen DiscoveryTeam:

Tara has done an amazing job doing Usability Studies, Accessibility Reviews, and coordinating SWAN Member libraries as they implement Aspen Discovery. The Usability Studies she does with her libraries help to inform Aspen's development and the Accessibility Review she performed has helped to ensure that Aspen is available to more library patrons.

Thank you, Tara, for all you do! And Congratulations!

Do you have a staff member at your branch that you would like to nominate for ByWater's Librarian of the Month? We love to feature library staff members that are impacting their patrons, are valued members of the library team, and who go the extra mile in the open source and library community. Email us and let us know who they are, brag about all their accomplishments and we'll share it!
