Good morning colleagues, All this week we are featuring testimonials from SEI graduates. Today we feature Steven Kowalik. Steven attended SEI in 2013 and is currently the Art Librarian at Hunter College Libraries in New York. Speaking to the importance of SEI as a seasoned professional, here's what Steven has to say: *“Attending the Summer Educational Institute was a very rewarding experience, even for a “seasoned” librarian such as myself. The SEI’s comprehensive curriculum and knowledgeable instructors recharged my professional battery while providing me with a renewed sense of confidence within a work environment of ever-evolving challenges and responsibilities. I recommend the SEI to anyone seeking a thorough and up-to-date understanding of visual resource management.”* *Who do you know that might enjoy SEI 2015?
