Brown, with a great deal of help from co-sponsors LHL and UAB Communications.
According to T. Scott Plutchak, library director, "IT Day has grown
significantly over the last several years. Tim has done a spectacular
job of taking it from an idea for a technology showcase to a two-day educational
event that I'm sure will continue to expand in years to come. He
has been very passionate and dedicated about making it the best event possible
and that's why it has been successful."
