But We Could Have Told You That!

It was very pleasant to hear the compliments about Dr. Cleveland(s) and UNT-SLIS that the UH Dean of Libraries, Dana C. Rooks, gave last Friday. To quote an earlier posting:

She [Dean Rooks] stated that the library owed much to Dr. Ana and Dr. Don, who have significantly supported it in many different ways, one of the most important being the strong Houston program. "All of you know the importance of the UNT-SLIS program here, either directly or indirectly," she said, going on to comment on the high caliber of UNT-SLIS graduates.

Dean Rooks' remarks were made during her welcoming speech for a reception and tour attended by visiting librarians. The reception and tours are part of the ongoing program "Celebrating University of Houston Libraries". If you haven't checked out the M.D. Anderson (main) library at UH recently, then you've been missing out on something good.

I only wish Dr. Ana and Dr. Don could have been present to enjoy the reception (decorated with the loveliest of orchids, roses, and irises--which they donated), and to hear the praise and applause that they so greatly deserve.
