    About Me

    My Photo
    Paul Everett Nelson
    Library advocate, Adjunct Assistant Professor (UW-Madison School of Library and Information Studies), inveterate gatherer of facts and figures, library director (retired). Son of a preacher man, a Lutheran minister who had churches in Auburn Washington (1943-52), Great Falls Montana (1952-57), and Warren Pennsylvania (1957-81). I graduated from Warren Area High School in 1968, SUNY Buffalo in 1972 (BA in English), and the Univ. of Pittsburgh Graduate School of Library and Information Studies in 1974 . Until I found my way into the public library world, I worked at the G. & C. Merriam Co. in Springfield, Mass, my mother's hometown. Department head at Oshkosh (Wisconsin) Public Library, 1978-1986. Director of Middleton (Wisconsin) Public Library, 1986-2008. Currently semi-retired/Adjunct Asst. Professor at UW-Madison School of Library and Information Studies. Married Jo in 1986. We have 2 sons, Andy (24) and Eddie (21), both in college.
