Melodie Eiteljorge
Employee Recognition Winner 2002

Multi-tasking is a common part of today’s library jobs. None of us seem to have the opportunity to focus on one assignment – gently leading it to its conclusion. This honoree has been praised as a master of multi-tasking. Her work is regularly interrupted by people who require immediate and professional attention. Whether she is addressing a library employee, a library friend, or fielding an urgent call from the Provost, she is “unfailingly polite, good natured, and responsive”. 

This year and last, she provided timely and enthusiastic support for two major library projects, the Self-Study and Strategic Planning. Working with multiple authors and multiple formats, she coordinated the creation of single documents. And, for Strategic Planning, coordinated arrangements coming through multiple channels adjusting to last minute changes without missing a beat. 

She has regularly taken classes and developed new skills — making her increasingly valuable to the Library — and to me in my role as Director of Libraries. 

Today I have the honor of honoring an individual whose achievements are visible right outside my door —Melodie Eiteljorge.
