The Library Employee Organization, or LEO as it was most commonly known, was established in 1985 by Northern Arizona University's Cline Library employees for the purpose of utilizing the many talents of library employees outside of their normal work responsibilities, as well as providing multiple opportunities for social activities. Membership to LEO was open to all employees of Cline Library for nominal annual dues.
The LEO Executive Board was comprised of the officers and committee chairs, all of whom were elected by the membership. Officers were the President, Vice-President, Secretary, Treasurer and, in later years, Web Master.
The three original standing committees of LEO were the Social Committee, the Professional Committee (sometimes called "Employee Development Committee" or "Staff Committee" or "Staff Development Committee"), and the Service Committee (sometimes called "Community Service Committee"). The Social Committee provided opportunities for fun social gatherings of library staff. It organized the popular annual Halloween parties and February Potlucks, among other gatherings. The Professional Development Committee offered learning sessions for Cline Library employees on a number of topics, including learning about the new Internet and how to write effective employee evaluations and self-evaluations. The Service Committee gave LEO members opportunities to volunteer to help the community with activities such as Adopt-A-Family at Christmastime and Adopt-A-Highway clean-ups. A fourth standing committee, The Scholarship Committee, was later established to solicit entries and choose winners from among the library's student employees for the Textbook Scholarship, which later became the Mary Crawley Memorial Scholarship.
Although it was never a standing committee, the LEO Roars Committee met on a fairly regular basis to coordinate the publishing of the LEO Roars newsletter, which kept Cline Library employees up to date on current events, library news, and new employee introductions.
LEO dwindled in the early 2000s in both membership and activity. The last mention of activity by the organization was in late 2002.
The LEO Records (NAU.ARC.MS.2; NAU.PH.2006.09) documents the activities of the Library Employee Organization (LEO) at Northern Arizona University's Cline Library from 1985 to 2002. It includes administrative materials, committee and task force activity, social, professional and service events sponsored by LEO committees, as well as copies of the LEO Roars newsletters. A wide range of material types include bylaws, agendas and minutes of meetings, annual reports, officers' notes, committee chair notes, event planning notes, event flyers, public relations materials, membership rosters and photographs of various people at sponsored LEO events.
