Pronouns
He / HimTo acknowledge that assumptions about someone’s gender identity could be incorrect, many organizations, including NC State, have begun to encourage community members to include a brief statement of their gender pronouns as they introduce themselves within a group.

Shout-outs From My Colleagues
Shout-outs are kind words from Libraries staff to other Libraries staff for going out of their way to be extra awesome at their job.
Bravo to the team that upgraded the Libraries website to Drupal 10 — Erik Olson, Eric Pauley, Meredith Wynn, and Chris Bowen! And big thanks to Amir Blair and Robin Davis for testing. Keeping our large, complex website up to date is important, difficult work. It's the kind of work that would be easy to postpone and get behind on. Not this team! Because of them, we have a well-oiled machine.

Simply put, Web Team solves problems, and fast. An increasing number of Libraries departments are producing different kinds of content across different platforms. Web Team has been adept at not only enabling departments to produce new kinds of content, but also helping External Relations leverage and re-use that content. The team has been incredibly responsive to (and patient with!) out-of-left-field, what-if questions by thinking through the implications of back-end changes from both a technology perspective and a consistency one. They respond quickly with solutions and implementations informed by the Libraries' overall mission, rather than playing defense against changes to the complex infrastructure that they have to maintain. Web Team is always helpful, thoughtful, reasonable, and fast.

When you think of someone who cares about getting things right, and has amazing follow-through, that's Eric Pauley. I recently needed Eric's help in updating an online form that had multiple dependencies on other communication channels. The request was complex and he caught details that I didn't catch when I prepped the changes to be made. Eric's work made the online form do a much better job of helping us help patrons with requesting collections support during the pandemic.
