FTVA, a division of UCLA Library, is the world’s largest university-held collection of motion pictures and broadcast programming and the second-largest repository of moving images in the United States, after the Library of Congress. Prior to her appointment at UCLA, HaDuong served as senior manager in access at the Acad- emy Film Archive, where she oversaw access to the collection. Leslie Sharp was named dean of the Georgia Tech Library starting July 1, 2020. She had served as interim chief executive officer for the library since March 2019. Sharp has more than 25 years of administrative experience in both aca- demic and history-related organizations, and has been at Georgia Tech since 2006, where she also served as assistant dean for Academic Affairs and Outreach for the College of Design and, most re- cently, as the associate vice-provost for Graduate Education and Faculty Development, a position she has held since 2013. In the role of interim CEO of the library, Sharp was responsible for overseeing all personnel, financial, and opera- tional decisions. She also began to craft a long- term vision for the human resources, technol- ogy, space, and culture of the library, including strengthening integration of the library with the academic and research mission of the Institute. Luiza Wainer has been named senior assistant librarian, e-resources metadata librarian, at the University of Washington. Chris Gilman is now digital curriculum pro- gram coordinator at the UCLA Library. Raymond Pun has been named education/out- reach manager at the Hoover Institution Library & Archives at Stanford University. Christopher Taijiro Murphy has been ap- pointed licensing and collection services special- ist for UCLA Library’s Resource Acquisitions & Metadata Services. Retirement Anne Mackereth, director of library services and as- sistant professor, has retired after 20 years of service to Northwestern Health Sciences University. Mackereth began as public services librarian on March 12, 2001, after ten years as a librarian at the Minnesota Depart- ment of Transportation. Her interest in complemen- tary medicine led her to explore the open position. After 12 years in the librarian role, she had the opportunity to become the director of library services when the former director retired. It was a challenging transition during which she learned how to manage the library’s budget, helped two employees transition to retirement due to an early retirement incentive, and coordinated the library’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic, among other accomplishments. Since 2015, Mackereth coordinated book reviews for Doody’s, the leading health science subject collection advisor. This enabled faculty reviewers to increase their scholarly activity by completing book reviews (and keeping the book for their collection). The library also received a copy of each title. Due to student needs identified in the biannual library student satisfac- tion survey, the library obtained soundproofing for its study rooms and three unique study PODs in 2018, under Mackereth’s leadership.
