I remember that she was going to work for a law library in London and all these clues seem to line up.  It's probably worth at least a question.

Ah I see Carla beat me to it. :)

Hello wonderful VR group,

I just want to run this by you:  PatJohn Ashkin and I had a conversation this morning and I thought it might be helpful for him if he could attend our next VR meeting, to meet with us and learn more about what goes on behind the scenes.

PatJohn recently moved to California.  He was previously working for Florida's Ask a Librarian service.  There, he found that he really has a passion for virtual reference service and would like to explore the possibility of starting a statewide service in California.  Needless to say, this is a huge undertaking.  Each of you have so much to offer someone like PatJohn, with your experience and advice, as he learns about the pros/cons, how to submit a proposal for state funding/support, etc.

What do you think about having him join us at the next meeting?  Would it be acceptable to have him ask the group questions in that format?

It's fun to think that this has come full circle.  Susan McGlamery, the founder of the 24/7 Cooperative, started in California I believe.  I was thinking that it would be helpful for him to talk to her about the history but I am out of touch with her.  Does anyone have her contact info?
