I am the Executive Director of SWAN Libraries, an enterprise library consortium of 100 libraries in Illinois. SWAN serves 1.2 million registered library users and contains 1.5 million unique items in its catalog. SWAN circulates 19.5 million annually, making it the one of the busiest library technology platforms in the United States. Under my watch, SWAN has expanded library resource sharing through the addition of 25 libraries over the past five years, growing from 75 to 100 members strong. I have overseen multiple strategic planning initiatives and executed their accompanying tactical plans.
