10 Questions: Dennie Hey

摘要

FROM HELPING ACQUIRE BOOKS FOR A LIBRARIAN IN UGANDA TO CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR INFORMATION PROFESSIONALS TO COLLABORATE IN ONLINE DISCUSSIONS, DENNIE HEYE IS LEVERAGING SLA'S GLOBAL COMMUNITY TO MAKE CONNECTIONS. Say "the Netherlands," and many people think of the Old World—wooden shoes, classicist architecture, and the so-called "Dutch masters" painters (Rembrandt and Vermeer, among others). But the Netherlands is very much at the forefront of modern Europe, with a vibrant economy and diverse culture, elite universities and research centers, and multinational businesses and organizations. Dennie Heye works for one of those businesses. He's the global knowledge manager at Shell, a leader in the field of energy exploration and production. His work for Shell and for the special library profession has been recognized for its successful blending of modern technology and traditional information skills—two years ago, Dennie was presented with the SLA Europe Information Professional Award.
