Connie Costantino
Dr. Connie Costantino passed away earlier this week while on vacation in Europe.
Connie had been an active member of CLA since 1991 and most recently was Chair of the Mentor/Protege Committee. She has also been a lecturer at SJSU School of Library Science since 2003. Prior to teaching at San Jose State, Connie spent over 30 years as a school, public, and academic librarian.
In lieu of donations, Connie's family is asking that you donate to your local library in her name. A special memorial webpage has been set up for Connie.
Update: January 20, 2009
Connie Costantino's Celebration of Life Beach Party will take place on the sand in front of her condo complex (Delfin Eldorado) at 1601 S. Pacific, Oceanside, CA 92054.
We are looking forward to you joining us to celebrate Connie's life.
Dress is casual; comfortable beach wear with multiple layers for warmth.
It's off season so parking should be plentiful. Park on the street or in the Buccaneer Park lot diagonally across the street at the intersection of Morse and S. Pacific.
