Celebrating 25 Years
2019 – Celebrating the People who have helped HKN Succeed
As a collaborative project of the University of Alberta Library and the University of Calgary Library, the HKN Office can be located at either of these post-secondary institutions, depending on where the General Manager is located.
When HKN began in 1994, the office was located at the University of Alberta in Edmonton with oversight provided by the Chief Librarians of both Universities. In 2001, the office moved to the University of Calgary where the current HKN Librarian resides.
In celebrating these past 25 years, HKN salutes its past General Managers, Georgia Makowski, Della Jacobson, Taryn Canete, Pat Sandercock, and Vivian Stieda, all of whom helped move HKN forward.
HKN also salutes the Health Sciences Library Heads and the Library Directors at each Partner University, whose clear direction and vision helped shape HKN.
And, of course, HKN salutes its most important partners, both the libraries it serves and the vendors with whom it negotiates. Their support over the past 25 years have ensured that HKN has remained relevant and sustainable.
