I want to join in congratulating Mark Bresnan on his retirement. Over the 19 years I have spent at the Met, I often depended on the sage advice of my colleague, Mark, at the Frick. There are people you know you can shoot an email to and be assured that you will get a quick and to-the-point response - Mark is one of those kind of people. He was ever gracious and never judgmental and often humorous. Over the years he has been supportive of not just me, but of our work at the Watson Library in general. His participation as part of the New York City cataloging community will be sorely missed! Best wishes for your future plans, Mark! Tamara -- Tamara Fultz Associate Museum Librarian Thomas J.

While not all that active in ARLIS/NA I have presented once and moderated a couple of times at our annual conferences, and contributed a Cataloging Section column to the long-defunct print publication ARLIS/NA Update for a few years. I have always appreciated the acumen, collegiality and professionalism of the Society. At the Frick I have been fortunate to work under 3 Mellon Librarians: Helen Sanger, Patricia Barnett and Stephen Bury. I am greatly appreciative of the guidance and support of Deborah Kempe, Chief, Collections Management and Access, at the Frick. Debbie has pushed us to participate in BIBCO, ECIP, and LD4P (Linked Data for Production) as well as other national and international endeavors. I will miss my colleagues at the Frick, in NYARC and in the Art Libraries Society of North America. Best wishes for the holidays and in the New Year. Sincerely, Mark Mark Bresnan Head, Bibliographic Records Frick Art Reference Library New York, NY 10021 [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> 212-547-0673 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mail submissions to [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> For information about joining ARLIS/NA see: http://www.arlisna.org/membership/join-arlisna Send administrative matters (file requests, subscription requests, etc) to [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> ARLIS-L Archives and subscription maintenance: http://lsv.arlisna.org Questions may be addressed to list owner (Judy Dyki) at: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mail submissions to [log in to unmask] For information about joining ARLIS/NA see: http://www.arlisna.org/membership/join-arlisna Send administrative matters (file requests, subscription requests, etc) to [log in to unmask] ARLIS-L Archives and subscription maintenance: http://lsv.arlisna.org Questions may be addressed to list owner (Judy Dyki) at: [log in to unmask] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
