The most part of my job is that I have alot of
room and flexibility and support to be able to pursue
both my academic passions and the
the mission of the college in the perameters of my job and I've been able to
pursue
digital teaching and learning and the digital humanities
within all aspects of my job and to be able to support that in the college.
I think libraries transform people's lives in
alot of ways and I that's one of the focuses
of my sabbatical research and I'm looking into mechanics institutes
in particular and how Carnegie
Libraries where the focus of that and how
learning institutions grew up around the library a central focus.
It means to me that Sweetbriar
stands behind its main focus on community.
It's such a tight-knit community and
the faculty, the staff,
the librarians all work together to support the mission at the college
and to support the students from beginning
to their lives as alumni.
And it means to me that their encouragement and support
is noticed.
