NLM/AAHSL Fellow
As many of you know, both Jerry Perry and Jeanette Ryan were selected in recent years as NLM/AAHSL Fellows. This highly competitive program selects 4-6 librarians each year who show strong leadership potential to participate in a mentoring experience. This coming year AHSL has been chosen to host Sandra I. Martin, Interim Director, Shiffman Medical Library at Wayne State University as an NLM/AAHSL Fellow. She will visit us several times in the coming year and will have a chance to meet with everyone. She and I will also communicate regularly and jointly participate in some learning experiences. Sandra will be added to some of our listservs so that she can keep up on what’s happening at AHSL.
