When I joined the UW Information School faculty in September 2016 as the inaugural Distinguished Practitioner in Residence, I was a "fish out of water" having been a public library administrator for most of my career, but the "Syracuse in Seattle" team, including the entertaining Scott Barker, welcomed me. As a Syracuse University alum, Scott and the SU family, with the Eisenbergs and Joe Janes, were my "home away from home" during my tenure at UW. Scott's office was next to mine and we would often be the only people in the faculty hall working past quitting time. Scott will be missed by his colleagues, students and friends. We were glad to know him but he is gone too soon.
