<p class=MsoNormal>It seems that the re-design of California's statewide
reference service has been going on forever. Over the last few months, we've
surveyed California public library end-users on their information needs and
have taken a critical look at the results. Working with a small group of
librarians, we have been designing potential scenarios for new approaches to
statewide reference. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><u>Stacey Aldrich</u> was recently appointed by Governor Arnold
Schwarzenegger as the Deputy State Librarian of the California State Library.
Before that she had the great opportunity to be the Assistant Director of the
Omaha Public Library System. Before Omaha, she was the Deputy State Librarian
at the Maryland State Department of Education, where her primary responsibility
was to oversee the implementation of statewide projects. While in MD, Stacey
played an active role in developing programs, conferences, and discussions to
help public libraries generate ideas, conversations, and innovative programming
around future thinking.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><u>Rosario Garza</u> has been working in library
cooperatives and networks since 1984. She was at the Bibliographical Center for
Research (BCR) from 1984 to October 2006 and held the position of Assistant
Director for Member Services for her last 4 years there. Prior to coming to
BCR, Ms. Garza worked in academic libraries including Auburn University and the
University of Texas at Arlington. In November 2006, she became Executive
Director of the Metropolitan Cooperative Library System (MCLS) in Pasadena. <o:p></o:p></p>
