I am sadden to hear of the passing of Mary Jo. Savannah State University was the first university that I attended a HBCU Library Alliance Meeting when I became Director of Library Services at Elizabeth City State University. During that meeting, Mary Jo was so welcoming, kind and cordial. She will be greatly missed. My sincere condolences to her family.
