鈥淚 have two primary points of reflection when contemplating the role of Chief Law Librarian, that it is a tremendous honour and carries with it a great responsibility.聽I have been at the law school for over twenty years and hold the position in high esteem.聽At the same time, there is a responsibility to the community that utilizes the library and a responsibility to live up to the standards that have been set by the giants in the profession that have occupied the role previously (Anne Matthewman, Ann Morrison, Christian Wiktor and Eunice Beeson) that I will strive to meet.鈥�
