Praxis: Where Theory Meets Practice



Sara in the cockpit

Info-pro leader Sara Tompson will lead the group in a spirited look at the application of theories in librarianship via aviation analogies. Expect some hands-on participation!

Sara Tompson was recently elected to the SLA Board as a Director, and took office in January 2011. She served as SLA-SCC professional development chair for the past three years, and has previously served as chair of the SLA Engineering Division; secretary for the SLA Physics-Astronomy-Mathematics Division; and president of the SLA Illinois Chapter. Currently Associate Dean for Library Public Service at the University of Southern California, Tompson's roots are in science and engineering librarianship. She is a licensed private pilot with an instrument rating and enjoys flying over the gorgeous southern California landscape with her husband and her friends, both human and canine.
