Best wishes to Andrew Green

This week we say goodbye to Andrew Green as he retires from the National Library of Wales after more than 14 years as Librarian.

Andrew has made a huge contribution to WHELF over the many years he has chaired the group. His energy,  expertise and commitment to WHELF will be very sadly missed.

Andrew will not be idle in retirement.  He has been asked to chair a group to report to the Welsh Education Minister, Leighton Andrews, on the significance of and prospects for MOOCs.

His successor at the National Library will be Aled Jones, currently Sir John Williams Professor of Welsh History and senior Pro-Vice Chancellor in Aberystwyth University (agj@llgc.org.uk). Aled will start work on 1 August.  Till then David Michael, Director of Corporate Services (dvm@llgc.org.uk) will be acting Librarian.
