The Duck Stops Here.................

Pat Duck, that is, and welcome to my homepage. On the way to my job interview for Director of the Pitt Greensburg Library, I passed a movie marquee displaying the words, "The Duck Stops Here."  Naturally, I was struck with the irony of that particular phrase and I have never quite forgotten it. A rip-off of Harry Truman's quote, "The buck stops here," the movie marquee was advertising the flop movie of 1986, Howard the Duck.

From 1980 until 1986, I was a librarian at the Hillman Library on the Pittsburgh Campus of the University of Pittsburgh.  Since August 1986, I have been a part of the phenomenal growth of the Greensburg Campus as director of  the library.  In 1995 we moved into a beautiful new building called the Millstein Library.  In addition to being the library director,  I am also the coordinator for the other regional campus libraries at Bradford, Johnstown and Titusville.  Please visit the virtual tour of our beautiful UPG Campus, the Millstein Library homepage, the Pitt Digital Library, or our Friends of the Millstein Library  organization. UPG schedules many events which are open to the public. All campus events are listed at the UPG Campus Calendar.
