A Big Thank You to the Library's 2017 SEPC Members

The Grinnell College Libraries would like to thank our 2017 Library Library Student Educational Policy Committee (Library SEPC) members Donna Brunquell '17, Moe Sabai '18, Amanda Magyar '17, Jenny Hoops '17, Xena Fitzgerald '17, and Emma Cibula '17, for their hard work and participation in this important student role.

The Library SEPC is an elected body of student workers chosen by their fellow student library employees. This is a liaison group between the students and Grinnell College Libraries that provides input to improve library services, assist with the periodic performance reviews for librarians, participate in interviews of candidates for librarian positions, and help organize the Libraries’ finals–week study breaks. The advice and suggestions from the SEPC help frame the future directions in many issues such as events, collections, and library promotion.

Four library student employees are elected each year and serve for one academic year. For continuity some members-at-large are invited to stay on from the previous year.

Nominations and the election for the 2018 Library SEPC members will be held in early April.
