Meet the Staff: Nate Pracht

Nathan Pracht

This year the Legal Beagle is featuring blog posts which introduce you (or re-introduce you) to our hard-working and amazing staff.  As we get near the end of our Meet the Staff posts, the Beagle is thrilled to introduce you to Nate Pracht, the man who makes sure that the librarians have what they need to be able to do their jobs and who helps ensure that our library facilities and technology work as intended.

What is your title?
Administrative Assistant

Can you tell our readers what you do for the library?
I interact with every staff member in some way providing support the best I can.  My main areas of focus are accounts payable, student worker payroll, and interacting with the University on facilities & technology requests.
[LB. Dean Ortiz likes to say that Nate is the COO of the library – he keeps things going when no one else is paying attention.]

What is your favorite reading genre?
Theology

What part of your job is most satisfying?
Playing a supportive role in enabling our Librarians to excel in serving the needs of our Law Students & Faculty.

We have it on good authority that you have seen A LOT of children’s movies thanks to adorable nieces and nephews. What is your favorite kid movie and why?
Moana is an exceptional movie on so many levels.  The music is top notch, the humor is great, the story is interesting, and the characters are memorable.  The character of Moana is one of the best protagonists you’ll find in the animated genre.

Name something you dislike, but everyone else seems to love.
Eggs
