Jim didn't want a traditional retirement party. "Too many greenhouse gas emissions, not to mention unwanted calories," he said. So instead we are having a Virtual Retirement Party - carbon neutral and heart healthy!

To celebrate, Jim wants all his colleagues and associates to post a good wish, photo or a memory to this blog. You can even ask Jim a question. Jim will reply to every post! (Jim will be the only person able to comment on messages after they are posted).

And while you're at it, Jim hopes you will consider a donation in his honor to his favorite charity, our own Talking Book and Braille Services.

Please submit your message before Jim retires on December 30, 2011. Include your name at the end of your message.

In lieu of cards, send blogs

I'm sorry I sent you a paper card and stamped my big carbon footprint all over your retirement plans! Here's my politically correct warm wishes for a happy transition from active library champion to even more active library champion - may your retirement be busy, productive, and engaging! --Sara

    That's okay Sara. The USPS needs the business! And I appreciated your card. It's been a pleasure working with you over the years and reading your exceptionally written grant applications. Keep up the good work.
