The library’s staff and faculty will meet at an All Library Meeting on March 6 to review and hone drafts of the library’s newly proposed mission / values / vision statements.
Tony Behan (De La Salle High School) recently wrote to Malia Willey (Instruction Coordinator) and Laurie Phillips (Associate Dean for Technical Services): “Thank you so much for your research tools session and a tour of the very vibrant and utilized library. The students gained insights into the research process and were given a very hospitable welcome to a university setting. On behalf of the Capstone team at De La Salle, we are very grateful.”
Librarians Malia Willey and Brian Sullivan welcomed the arrival of their son Cormac Alfred Sullivan on February 18. Cormac has already begun building a great collection of books thanks to his parents’ friends and colleagues. Congratulations, Malia and Brian!
