Please join us in welcoming Sarah Stevenson to the role of Associate Dean Archives, Records Management, and Special Collections. In addition to this new Associate Dean portfolio, Sarah will also remain as the Head of the Killam Memorial Library, a role she has been serving in since 2016.

Although this is a new title for Sarah, she is not an unfamiliar face in the Archives. In 2021, Sarah took on the duties of the Associate Dean Archives, Records Management, and Special Collections while Michael Moosberger was on leave. We are grateful to have an experienced leader transitioning into this role to work with the fabulous Archives, Records Management, and Special Collections team.

In this role, Sarah plans to build on the previous Associate Dean’s accomplishments, with the ultimate goal of making it easier for researchers to discover what we have by increasing the visibility of our collections and services in the Archives and Special Collections. Sarah’s aspirations include increasing the number of our holdings that are represented in the catalogue (AtoM), improving the promotion and discovery of our special collections, building on the success of our fledgling records management program, and providing support and a renewed vision for the digitization program.

As Head of the Killam Memorial Library, Sarah will continue to provide leadership in the development and provision of knowledgeable and flexible library services and sustainable collection development.

Welcome to the fifth floor, Sarah!
