Stacia Burnham earned her MLIS degree from
the University of South Carolina in 1999, where she held a two-year
graduate assistantship in the Reference Department at USC's main

As a solo librarian at ICRW, Stacia is responsible
for all aspects of library services and management for a 60-person

institutional information management.
Before beginning her career in librarianship,
Stacia earned a degree in English from Grinnell College, and spent
two years with the Peace Corps in Kazakhstan. She looks forward
to returning overseas this year to assist with a knowledge sharing
workshop ICRW is coordinating for its partner organizations in
Ghana.

served as a technical consultant to the Population Division of
the United Nations regarding the Global Population Information
Network (POPIN). Matthews was a member of Macro International's
MEASURE+GIs Working Group assessing the potential use and availability
of geo-coded and contextual data on Demographic and Health Survey
(DHS) clusters. More recently he has coordinated the GIs and spatial

| Mary
Panke |
Senior Librarian, Population Action International
Mary Panke, Librarian, holds a BA in English Literature from
Carleton College and an MLS from Columbia University. She worked
as solo librarian for the Washington Office of the Electric Power
Research Institute; as Reference Librarian for the Environmental
Protection Agency; and as Internet Librarian for the United Nation's
Environment Programme, prior to her current position as Senior
Librarian at Population Action International (PAI). Over the past
2 decades Mary's library experience has accrued in many guises,
ranging from setting up a traditional special library, to pioneering
a pre-web online reference and referral service for a network
of member companies. Oddly enough for someone who loved reading
English Literature but NOT writing the term papers, her library
work has from the very outset always included writing, whether
technical reporting on information and environmental topics, or
more recently, speechwriting for her organization's CEO. Mary's
current work also includes management of a project to organize
PAI's internal electronic files for improved access and long-term
archival storage.
