Meet our Social Media Coordinator, Allison Crutchfield!
Howdy! My name is Allison Crutchfield. I currently live in Oklahoma, where I work full-time at a public library. I am a first year MLIS student at UB and hope to be a public librarian in the future. I particularly enjoy YA/New Adult literature, but am enjoying children’s lit and services this semester! Outside of grad school, I love to make art, go to concerts, read, and post about the books I’ve read to social media.
It’s time to meet our Vice President!
My name is Christina L’Hommedieu and I am located here in Buffalo just a few miles from UB north campus. This is the beginning of my 3rd year in the MLIS program, and I have recently switched from the public librarianship side to the school librarianship program. I have always dreamed of becoming a youth librarian and through the years I hope to work both in a school and public library. Currently, I am a regular volunteer at my local branch working with tweens and teens on a newsletter program. Also, this is also my second year being involved in the student ALA here at UB. On the personal side of things, I enjoy reading tons of middle-grade and YA literature, riding my bike, and spending time (aka surviving) with my 3 kiddos. Please reach out and connect anytime!
Meet our President, Marisa Hadley!
“Hello everyone! My name is Marisa Hadley, I’m a second year Information and Library Science graduate student, and I am honored to serve as this year’s Student ALA President. I currently live in Boise Idaho with my husband, our cat named Squirrel, and our one-year-old Bulldogge named Nessie (i.e. the Loch Ness Monster). In my free time I enjoy playing video games, watching trivia TV, and browsing real estate apps. Post-graduation, I hope to work as a makerspace or technology librarian.”
