listen to the meeting online here</a> (it takes a minute to load so be patient). Thanks to the 15 or 16 of you who participated!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">At the end of the meeting I announced that I’ll be leaving the State Library of Oregon on September 22. I start my new job as youth services librarian for Washington County Cooperative Library Services (Hillsboro, OR) on October 2. As you
know, being a youth services consultant can feel isolating because we’re the only one in our state doing this work. You all have provide much needed support and guidance over the years—I couldn’t have done it without you, thank you!
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The State Library of Oregon will continue to manage the YSCon listserv. My manager will assign administration of this listserv to one of my co-workers until the next youth services consultant is hired—probably in January because we’re in
a hiring “slow down.” If you have any questions in the meantime, contact my manager (<a href="mailto:susan.b.westin@state.or.us">susan.b.westin@state.or.us</a>).
