We are happy to share that Christina Tatum, our Instruction & Outreach Librarian, was honored with the Community Impact Award last night! She is brilliant at relationship-building across campus, provides wonderful support to First Gen Scotties in PathMakers, participates on Heritage Month committees, is co-leading a First Year Journeys trip to the Navajo Nation next week, and recently helped launch a Black Affinity Space - on top of her “regular” duties, so her impact is widely appreciated. Congratulations, Christina!
