GaE0RGETOWN TEXAS Mr. David Morgan City Manager City Hall 113 E. 8ch Street Georgetown, TX 78626 September 27, 2016 M- s The members of the Georgetown Library Advisory Board want to bring to your attention the recent recognition given to Eric Lashley, Library Director by the Texas Library Association. Each year the Texas Library Association selects 24 librarians from across Texas to attend the Texans Leadership Institute (TALL -Texas Library Association -Texas Accelerated Library Leaders Institute). This is a competitive selection process and many participants apply numerous times in an effort to be selected as an attendee. In addition, the Texas Library Association selects only four mentors from across Texas to work with these librarians for five days of intensive training. This intensive training includes all aspects of leadership: values, ethics, risk taking, effective interpersonal relationships, positive communications, creating a positive work culture, empowerment, negotiations, and community engagement. Because of Eric's recognized achievements he was selected as one of four mentors for the Texas Library Association's Texas Accelerated Library Leaders Institute held on June 12-16, 2016. The changing role of the Georgetown Public Library requires many new improved skills and management techniques in order to meet the needs of our community. Eric Lashley is a great asset to our community and his versatility in meeting these new challenges greatly benefits our Library and our community.
