Hi all, Please excuse any cross postings. This week's "A Diverse Universe" post is brought to you by Marilyn Bromley, Library Director at BNA and Candidate for SLA's 2012 Board of Directors. Here's a sneak peak of Marilyn's post: "In February, Larry Lempert, one of my BNA colleagues, wrote a Diverse Universe blog post on how he became Director of Product Research and Planning after years in the editorial side of the company, during which he earned an MLS from the University of Maryland. Giselle Caruso, another MLSer here at BNA, participated with Larry in last year’s DC/SLA “Cinco de Mayo” session on alternative careers for MLS graduates; Giselle is a senior project manager in our business systems group. BNA also has MLS grads serving as indexers, senior-level trainers and legal market sales professionals. So BNA’s a pretty diverse place for LIS professionals, right? Yup, and even in the Library. With a professional staff of 6 librarians, there is a lot of non-traditional work going on . . ."
