Department Summary
The NNLM Region 3 office is responsible for reaching out to hundreds of organizations in a seven-state region. The normal duties of our staff are focused on managing projects and teaching continuing education classes. In the past, managing regional contacts and communications to stakeholders has been distributed between two different positions. As the organization has evolved, it has become increasingly difficult for anyone to dedicate significant effort to ensure these essential functions are covered. Additionally, marketing and communications positions typically don't require an advanced degree, so it makes logical sense for us to have a dedicated marketing/communications specialist with expert knowledge.
