I am pleased that I have been with the Librarian Relations Group
since its creation in 1993!
LexisNexis has always recognized the importance of librarians in
the information industry and in the organizations of our customers.
Support of AALL and SLA at both the national and regional levels, a
newsletter for librarians, professional development programs, and
special training for librarians were all done by LexisNexis prior to
formalizing them into one area -- the Librarian Relations Group.
Since the formation of the Group in 1993, we have built on that
existing foundation. Our focus and mission remain unchanged:
To provide you with expert training and personalized support that
will help you succeed, and to represent your interests and concerns
to LexisNexis management, sales, marketing and product development.
In my role with the Librarian Relations Group, I have the
privilege of managing the Librarian Relations Consultants and a
dedicated marketing team. The Librarian Relations Consultants
are professional librarians who are committed to working with law
librarians on training, professional development and with
professional associations. The dedicated marketing team is
responsible for our LexisNexis Information Professional Update
newsletter, the InfoPro Web site that you are reading now, the
LexisNexis This Week e-newsletter, and many other marketing
functions. LexisNexis has a strong commitment to the entire
Librarian Relations Group.
