I count myself incredibly lucky to have got to know and love Eileen while she was my manager at the University of Auckland Library. I learned so much from her; she was knowledgeable and supportive, hilarious and kind, strategic, clever and always, always right about everything. I´ll miss her terribly, especially her wisdom, support and wonderful laugh. Sending all of my love to Greg and her family.
