Currently residing in Cincinnati, Glen Horton has served as the Technology Coordinator for the SWON Libraries organization since 1999. His duties require him to have experience in a wide range of technologies. He is responsible for providing technology assistance, technology training, and facilitating shared projects within the SWON Libraries membership.
Before coming to SWON Libraries, Glen spent seven years in the Library Computing Services Department at Wright State University. In addition to managing the libraries' 200+ PC's, he assisted in administering the libraries' web, file, and card catalog servers.

Libraries are increasingly dependent on technology to deliver user services.
