Carla Dewey Urban
I grew up in interesting places like Brazil, Minnesota and Ethiopia. I have a B.A. from Carleton
College and a M.A. from Tulane University in Latin American Studies in addition to my MLS
from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. With a last name like "Dewey," how could I be
anything but a librarian?
For five years I was the Latin American Cataloger for the Tulane University Library down
in New Orleans, so if you need any help cataloging Spanish, Portuguese or French materials,
give me a call. I joined Minitex in 1995.
Sara Ring
I grew up in Wisconsin before migrating to the Twin Cities. Here I earned my B.A. in
Cultural Studies and Comparative Literature. I worked at Magrath Library on the St. Paul
campus for a couple of years and discovered the library world.
I then moved back to Wisconsin and got my M.A. in Library and Information Studies at
UW-Madison. There I worked for the Wisconsin Department of Transportation Library doing
a little bit of everything: cataloging, ILL, reference, web development... I also worked
for two years at UW-Madison's College Library providing reference and working on web
development projects.
My interests include traveling, hearing live music, making film shorts with friends,
camping, biking and rollerblading.
Mark Wilhelmi
After spending part of my childhood on a farm in Illinois, I earned degrees in history
and counseling at Northern Illinois University. I've lived in such exotic places as
Vermont and Washington, DC, where I got my M.L.S. from the Catholic University of America.
As a librarian I first worked in special libraries and then did cataloging for a library
support firm. After returning to the Midwest I did some contract cataloging and some
reference work before joining the BATS staff.
My interests include meditation, literature, current events and history (especially the
Civil War). I also enjoy traveling, journaling and going to the movies.
