Jill Kline Named MLA Outstanding New Librarian
From the MLA 2025 Conference Program:
“The Outstanding New Librarian Award recognizes a librarian with at least 1 year of Missouri-based experience (and less than 5 years in the field) who has contributed significantly to improving and advancing library and information services. This year’s recipient is Jill Kline, Student Success Librarian at University of Missouri Libraries. In her 2 years at Mizzou, Jill has reached thousands of students through instructional sessions and campuswide events. She has created new library learning tools, secured grant funding for a well being book collection, and presented at regional conferences, including MLA. Student surveys of her instructional sessions have shown that more than 95% of students stated that they would be more likely to use Library tools, thanks to her guidance. Jill has led instruction sessions for middle and high school students, while codeveloping a new graduate library workshop. She has also served on university-wide committees, assisting with first-generation student success and AI literacy.”
Congratulations, Jill!
