Richard Huffine: An Interview with the Eleventh Chief Librarian of the U.S. Geological Survey

Richard Huffine has devoted the past fifteen years to working in a variety of roles in the federal government, often with cartographic resources and geospatial information. His federal service includes serving first as National Library Coordinator and later as Library Director for the U.S. Geological Survey. Hallie Pritchett, head of the Map and Government Information Library at the University of Georgia, recently asked Richard to discuss his work with the U.S. Geological Survey Libraries Program, the impact and implications of last fall's government shutdown, and his thoughts on emerging trends in libraries or librarianship.
