The indefatigable Darci Hanning (”darcilicious” to #plone IRC users), leader of the Plinkit Plone-for-public-libraries project, was recently profiled in a LibraryJournal.com article about “The Women Who Drive Library Technology.”
After soul-searching and career counseling, she decided she
wanted to use her problem-solving approach and technology skills to
help people and thought of libraries. She entered the University of
Washington Information School distance program and volunteered for a
wide variety of library projects in the Portland, OR, area. As she
graduated in 2005, the technology consultant at the Oregon State
Library retired. Delighted, Hanning jumped at the opening and landed
her âdream job.â She calls it luck, but people like… Hanning
make opportunities for themselves through bold strokes and hard work.
