Elise Aiello, Partner Engagement Specialist at ByWater Solutions, recently commented on the experience:
It is always an honor to serve as a mentor in the Sunshine State Library Leadership Institute. I love staying connected with Florida library friends, and am always inspired by the innovation of the participants' projects! It was a joy to work with my mentee Yoshiie, who not only learned so much about her leadership style during the program, but created an initiative that has already positively impacted her library!
