Reference Librarian (temporary)

Education

My job is to develop the relationships my library has with various campus departments and units, as well as with the communities outside of the university. Through these relationships, I work to ensure my library's reputation and visibility are positive and vibrant. I aim to advocate on behalf of libraries, whether they be academic, public, school, or special. My personal and professional goals are to develop and sustain library services that demonstrate strong commitment to social justice principles and support the information needs of diverse patrons.
