Acknowledgements

Both authors have long-standing roots, professional and personal, in New Jersey; we wish to thank the vibrant NJ library community for their advocacy and commitment to professional and continuing education, and outstanding library services. Our development as professional trainers has grown, in part, through our collaboration with this community – we have learned so much from you.

We would also like to thank our libraries and universities (Montclair State University and Rutgers University) for their long-term support of our training, writing, and other professional endeavors.

Finally, we wish to thank the Chandos team for their patience and interest in our expertise, and our families for understanding the time commitments involved in training other library trainers.
