Many of you will know Cathy as our Conference Coordinator, a position she will retain as we move forward with our plans. Cathy has been an active and engaged TLA member since 1997, and has held a wide variety of positions, including President, over her time with us. Please join me in welcoming Cathy to this new role! Between October 1 and December 1, Cathy will be working with Annelle to move equipment and files and learn as much as possible. As of December, Annelle officially retires and Cathy takes over the position in a solo capacity. The Executive Board and I ask for your patience as we make this transition. Thank you, Cathy, for your many years of service and desire to take on this role. Jill Rael TLA President 2019-2020 -- Rita Shacklett Director of Libraries Rutherford County Library System 105 W.
