What is a VIVA Award
The VIVA (Very Important Volunteer Awards) awards are given to volunteers who do something extraordinary beyond their usual work or who make an outstanding contribution of some kind. It is a spontaneous award based on the recommendations of staff or other volunteers. Since the award commenced in 2004, the following volunteers have been presented with VIVAs:2009 Viva Awards
John Ivory – Information Technology
The Information Technology staff is very appreciative of the volunteer work John has done for them for a number of years now. Most notably, he helped to convert the Library's genealogical archive from a paper-based to a computer-based system and created an automated process for signing up and renewing remote access privileges.
John continues to generously lend his expertise to the IT Department. He makes a difference not only in the IT Department, but throughout the Library helping staff and patrons.
We extend heartfelt thanks to John from the staff of Information Technology and the Volunteer Office for being such a wonderful volunteer and making a great contribution to our Library.
