What Librarianship Looks Like Today 🙂

CVCC Learning Support Assistant Noah Clarke spends much of his day answering phone calls, connecting people with the information they need, and helping them find the right person or department. While many of the calls are library-related, others come from individuals seeking assistance from across campus and simply aren't sure where to begin.

Noah's friendly demeanor, patience, and willingness to help ensure that every caller feels welcomed and supported. We are grateful for the positive first impression he provides and for the care he shows to everyone who reaches out to our campus. Thank you, Noah, for making a difference every day!

What Librarianship Looks Like Today 🙂

CVCC Outreach and Instruction Librarian Anita McRary spent part of the morning preparing the Civic Season display case in the foyer outside the library.

The 15 days between Juneteenth and Independence Day are recognized as Civic Season. Positioned between our nation’s newest and oldest federal holidays, Civic Season invites us to learn more about our communities, reflect on our shared history, and engage in meaningful civic participation.

We invite students, employees, and community members to explore these resources and join us in celebrating Civic Season through learning, reflection, and engagement.
