Valerie Bross

About

Her exceptional and distinguished contributions to the field of serials librarianship have included a consistent and wide-ranging role in the development and testing of cataloging standards, including influential work on no fewer than 13 PCC/CONSER task forces. She was cited for her prominent leadership in the cooperative cataloging community, not only as representative of her own institution on the CONSER Operations Committee and as member and frequent chair or co-chair of its working groups, but also as first coordinator of the highly successful University of California CONSER Funnel Project, which extended training and widened opportunity for participation among the campuses that had not been independent members of CONSER. This model provided a template for the subsequent development of a geographically dispersed CONSER Funnel program among member libraries of ATLA (the American Theological Libraries Association ).
