"We have a new co-youth librarian who will be job-sharing that position with Jill Hasseler. Her name is Kathy Tomasovic. She got the job as an internal candidate who applied when former youth librarian Louise Van Hammond retired at the end of April."
Kathy is a mother of 3, loves reading and working with young people, and enjoys needle crafts, painting, nature, and camping. She is a graduate of Kimberly High School, UW Fox Valley Center (Associate of Arts), UW Madison (BA in English), and the Institute for Paralegal Training (certificate in litigation management). Kathy worked in the legal field prior to having children and worked at Barnes & Noble for 3 years before joining the library staff.
Please join us in wishing Kathy well in her new position!

We have a couple of people leaving OWLS in 2008 - we are sad to have to say good-bye to Leslie and Vicki in January.
Leslie's last day will be Friday, January 4th, and we send our best wishes with her as she returns to full-time work. We have enjoyed having her at OWLS and know that she will succeed at her future position. We will be looking to fill the CE and Consulting Librarian position soon after her departure.
Vicki will be entering the world of retirement, but will be busy with her children and grandchildren, so don't think she'll just be putting her feet up! Her last day will be January 2nd. She will be sorely missed! We are currently reviewing applications for the Graphic Arts Specialist position and will be interviewing soon. Keep in mind that we may be without someone in the position for a short period of time, so your print jobs may be delayed. We appreciate your patience as we find a new person and get them settled in.
