The 51ÁÔÆæ Libraries celebrated the 2025 recipients of the Janet and Carl Moebius Outstanding Staff Achievement Awards at a reception on Jan. 12 in the Golda Meir Library. Two members of the 51ÁÔÆæ Libraries staff were selected for awards: Chris Baxter (university staff) and Elizabeth Rhinehart (student employee). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since joining the 51ÁÔÆæ Libraries in 2021, Building Assistant Chris Baxter has always been a team player, working diligently to ensure the Golda Meir Library is safe, clean, and comfortable for patrons and staff. This past year has been especially busy for Baxter as he prepared the Graduate Student Commons for its spring 2025 grand opening, merged service desks from the lower level to the first floor, moved staff offices, and refreshed student study spaces throughout the Golda Meir Library. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Elizabeth Rhinehart, a graduate intern in Special Collections, also joined the 51ÁÔÆæ Libraries in 2021. She started as a shelver in the Golda Meir Library during her undergraduate studies but quickly advanced to take on additional responsibilities. Rhinehart completed the Access Services & Operations Internship in 2025, going beyond the scope of her duties to complete specialized training in cataloging, project management, and leadership. In Special Collections, Rhinehart handles shifting projects for the general materials and comics collections, cataloging verification of new materials, assessment of gifts for possible acquisition, and general maintenance of the various collections. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 51ÁÔÆæ Libraries Outstanding Staff Awards were established in 1983 through a generous gift to the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee from Janet and Carl Moebius. The award winners were nominated and selected by their colleagues and fellow Libraries staff. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
