WOW, what a wonderful week we have had! Olin Library faculty and staff have been honored and recognized for several accomplishments last week that are too good to not share:
⭐ This year, the library was honored with the Service Excellence Departmental Award, an honor that showcases a campus department that meets and exceeds the service excellence pillars of being responsive, respectful, collaborative, competent, and inclusive.
⭐ Professor Zhang has been honored with the Bornstein Award for Faculty Scholarship, bringing national prominence to Rollins College.
⭐ Professor Zhang and Alyssa Hanson co-founded and launched LOTUS (Leadership, Opportunity, Thriving, Unity, and Solidarity), an employee resource group celebrating the rich cultural heritage of AANHPI/APIDA communities.
⭐ Dr. Porta has been nominated and selected to be on the Rollins Staff Advisory Council, helping to elevate staff voices and representation on campus.
We feel immensely grateful for the level of support from our campus partners, and are so happy to see the impact the library has made in the last year. Here's to end of a great academic year, and to even more incredible years to come 🌟
