Congrats to Kate Reynolds

[Diane Turner <diane.turner@YALE.EDU>]

It is with mixed emotions that I announce that Kate Reynolds will be
leaving the Yale University Library and has been promoted to the position
of Assistant Director for Internal Communications, in University Human
Resources.  She will report directly to the Associate VP & Chief
Human Resources Officer, Robert Schwartz, and maintain strong client
relationships with the Office of Public Affairs and others from across
the university.  As Assistant Director, Kate will develop internal
communication strategies to improve the culture and work effectiveness of
Yale staff and faculty supervisors.

Kate's duties will also include managing the production of Working At
Yale, directing the development of the Finance and Administrative
website, overseeing the creation of written publications, consulting with
unit managers on communication strategies, and managing a communications
coordinator, interns and consultants.

We deeply appreciate Kate's many contributions in the areas of Staff
Training and Organizational Development over her nearly nine years of
service to the Yale University Library.   Kate has represented
the Library at the regional and national level, American Association of
Law Libraries (AALL) and more recently at NELINET, Inc., with several
presentations on staff development and human resource
issues.    Her leadership has been evident in the
development and launching of the Learning Plan, now part of our
performance appraisal system and in the establishment of a staff training
facility (SCML).

We will miss Kate and the many contributions she has made in her current
role but look forward to future collaborations with her in her new
appointment, effective June 20th.  Please join me in congratulating
Kate on this very exciting appointment.
