<div>In my various roles and disguises and personas and alter egos as:</div>

<li>Assessment Librarian at Oregon State University</li><li>Chair of the OLA Library Assessment Round Table</li><li>Chair of the Orbis Cascade Alliance Assessment Team</li></ol>
<div>Please let me know if I can aid in helping develop a proposal for this conference. I am happy to proof-read submissions, suggest collaborators, or generally facilitate some sort of proposal in some way. Having a national library assessment conference in
our backyard is an opportunity that I encourage you t take advantage of if you can. I really hope this conference can help raise our collective library assessment capacity and expertise in Oregon.</div>
