Zheng (Lan),Yang,Professor,"Zheng Ye (Lan) Yang is a Professor and Head of Document Delivery Services, which is generally known as ""Get It For Me."" Lan is an active member of the American Library Association and several divisions relating to resource sharing and document delivery.
Lan has developed innovative and increasingly responsive services for faculty and students at Texas A&M that have become models for other institutions. In addition to the traditional Interlibrary Loan services of getting materials not held locally, free scanning of documents from our own collection began in 2004. In Fall 2009, Get It For Me began delivering books to faculty mailboxes through campus mail. Because of her pioneering services, Lan is frequently called upon to consult with peer institutions and has been invited to give the Keynote Addresses for the Wisconsin and New York Interlibrary Loan Conferences.
Lan's research interests have always complemented her job responsibilities. Before heading Document Delivery, Lan was a reference librarian and her research centered on liaison activities to faculty. In her current position, her research concentrates on user satisfaction, management of document delivery, resource sharing services, and improvement of services.",Professor,University Libraries,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/n135d48c0

Chad,Pearson,Instructional Associate Professor/Public Services Reference Librarian,"I am a maverick and interdiscipinary thinker. I am creative and analytical, starting out in the creative arts but finding my professional calling in librarianship. I love to learn about all types of things, which explains my diverse education but also my intense desire to see the value and connections among all types of knowledge. I write creatively and academically, and I like to sing as well. I also enjoy watching films, mostly foreign and independent. I believe, like Aristotle, that it is important to maintain a sense of wonder when approaching knowledge and the world.
REFERENCE PHILOSOPHY
I believe each reference transaction is unique and relies on dialogic interaction on multiple levels. I believe in a maieutic reference process, guiding the patron to his/her own information realization and true inquiry need. I believe reference is a noble calling, a shared information discovery with humanity that allows us to broaden and expand our worldviews.

In this last role, I strategically focus on the assessment of library programs and services. Specifically, I collect, organize, and analyze institutional and collection data to facilitate data-driven, evidence-based decisions in support of Texas A&M University's educational and research mission.
My research and publications are strategically aligned with my assessment activities, focusing on the design, development, and application of practical and creative approaches to collection development and assessment, and demonstrating the value and impact of library resources on the academic community. I have an interest in practical and creative approaches to collection management and assessment (e.g., approval plans, demand driven acquisitions, assessment of serials and ""big deals"", electronic resources management systems). I am particularly interested in implementing a sustainable approach to collection assessment.",Assessment Librarian,University Libraries,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/nb3f90c0a
