At the end of June, our beloved director Sharman Smith stepped down from her job as the voice of libraries in Mississippi. Although we still miss her presence here, we know that the memory of her person and the words of advice and wisdom she left with us will remain for a very long time. That is why we are thrilled to look toward the future of Mississippi libraries with this exciting message that we received today:
The Board of Commissioners of the Mississippi Library Commission is happy to announce that Mrs. Susan Cassagne has accepted the position as Executive Director. Mrs. Cassagne currently serves as the Director of the Judge George W. Armstrong Library in Natchez, Mississippi. She brings a wealth of experience and knowledge of all types of Mississippi libraries, as well as many years of experience working with the Mississippi Legislature and with our National Senators and Congressmen.We are truly thrilled to welcome Director Cassagne to her new position.
They opened the door and stepped in.
They stopped.
The library deeps lay waiting for them.
