I've worked with Abdullah as a colleague during our time together on the Community Librarian team at MPL, and as a professional and a friend during our three OLASC presentations together. It's hard to imagine a field in which Abdullah would not be successful. He has an admirable work ethic and a wealth of experience and knowledge. His organizational skills and and project management are excellent, and these skills are apparent in everything he does, though he makes difficult work look easy. Aside from his professional accomplishments, he is a delightful colleague who I greatly enjoy working with. I have no doubt that his career path will be paved with many accompliments and accolades.

Working with Abdullah on business development projects for our community allowed me to see his strong project management skills. For instance, he kept a team of librarians, all working out of different branches, on task even when there were disruptions to the original timeline by a stakeholder. Plus, he was always available to answer any questions we had. Abdullah is a pleasure to work with. His ability to creatively problem solve and excellent organizational and outreach skills were impressive to witness. I have no doubt Abdullah will have a long and successful career as a leader in the information sciences field.
