The year-long comprehensive series of sessions focuses on developing diverse leaders to serve in administrative roles. Interim Secretary of State Dawn K. Roberts congratulated the graduates, saying "as a result of the Institute, participants are better prepared to provide the highest quality library services to the citizens of Florida in an effective and innovative manner that will meet today’s needs and tomorrow’s challenges." Twenty-three people completed this year’s 10-session Institute. The participants, who represented public, academic, special and school libraries, were chosen from applicants statewide. Congratulations, Tanya, on this achievement!
