Libraries Recognize Outstanding 2022 Student Employees with Awards
Syracuse University Libraries recognized its student employees with an awards celebration on April 21. The Libraries typically employ around 150 undergraduate and graduate students each year to contribute to the safety of our spaces, the quality and repair of our collections and to provide service support to patrons. Supervisors nominate student employees who have demonstrated dedicated service over time and significant contributions that have made a lasting impact on the Libraries.
The Libraries recognize these students through the generous support of Kathy and Stanley Walters, the family of Patricia Kutner Strait and the many donors to the Libraries Dean’s Fund. This year’s award celebration was dedicated to the memory of former Libraries’ student employee Madison Noelle Chappell ’19.
