Michael Derr
I've had the pleasure to work closely with Bob at the Akron-Summit County Public Library for the last 2 years. In addition to his top-notch web design skills, Bob has served, and contributed greatly, to the library's social media committee that I oversee. You won't find a more engaged and thoughtful person to bounce ideas off and to collaborate with. In my 17 years with the Akron-Summit County Public Library, I've had the opportunity to work with great individuals. Bob stands out among the very best.
