Dear All,

On behalf of the Reference and Information Services Section of ARLIS/NA, I am pleased to announce a new initiative to highlight Reference and Information professionals, their work, interests and reference spaces titled RISS Spotlight Interviews. We are happy to feature these on the RISS Blog and hope to have new posts each month to showcase our diverse workspaces, reference models, questions, personal interests, and members!

 

Check out our very first RISS Spotlight Interview with Amanda Meeks, Research and Instruction Librarian at Savannah College of Art and Design on the RISS Blog!

 

It’s fun and easy to participate! We hope you all will be excited to learn some interesting facts about our colleagues while visually seeing workspaces and faces!

 

 

Interested in submitting your information for a future RISS Spotlight Interview post?

We want to hear from you!
