NAL Director Peter Young stands down

The NAL blog announced that Peter Young has moved on after 6 years as NAL Director. The comments on the posting show that he will be missed by the US AgInfo community.

He will also be missed by his international colleagues - in IAALD and beyond. His lively and light approach to meeting facilitation, as experienced in Kentucky in 2005 and at the Rome e-agriculture meetings in 2007, were particular characteristics we will miss...

NAL Deputy Eleanor Frierson - also a long-term internationalist - has been named Acting Director.

Peter has re-joined the Library of Congress.
