Grassian and Baer: people of the moment

ACRL's June 2015 Teaching Librarian of the Month is Andrea Baer of Indiana University Libraries and there is an interview with her at http://acrl.ala.org/isteach/category/teaching-librarian-of-the-month/ Selected quote "I try to foster an environment in which people feel their ideas are valued and are focused on developing and sharing their own ideas, while listening and responding openly and critically to the ideas of others"
Another information literacy star is ACRL member of the week: Esther Grassian, and there is an interview with her at http://www.acrl.ala.org/acrlinsider/archives/10390 Selected quote "Academic/research librarians make a tremendous difference in the lives and success of students, staff, and faculty, helping them leap “thresholds” of all kinds"
