We are sad to report that MLIS alumna, Julia Stewart, has passed away.
From Dr. Sandra Toze (Program Director): Like all who had the pleasure of knowing Julia, her friends at the Department of Information Science want to extend our profound sorrow, and to join others in celebrating her life. Julia was an excellent student, who showed such strength and perseverance, as she completed her degree while managing her health issues. She was full of energy, ideas, and always so passionate. Since her graduation I had the pleasure of meeting her at conferences, and keeping up with her life virtually through Facebook. She was a significant force for public librarianship, and brought joy to all she worked with. I always appreciated our conversations, and the insights she would bring from her experiences. She will be greatly missed.
