Save the Date: All Staff Meeting – August 12th

We’re planning our pre-fall MU Libraries All Staff Meeting for the morning of Tuesday, August 12th, from 10:00 to around 11:30 a.m. All libraries will be closed from 10:00 to noon so everyone can attend, just like our Celebration of Service in May. For this meeting, we’ll have a light breakfast—think coffee and bagels—and a hybrid option will be available for those who need it. I encourage you to join us in person if you can!

Goodbye to Chelsae Cordia

Chelsae Cordia, our Donor Relations Coordinator, has resigned from Mizzou and is moving back to Poplar Bluff so her son Ben can start middle school with his friends. Chelsae has accepted an exciting new position with Anheuser-Busch, and, while we’ll miss her greatly, we wish her all the best in this next chapter. Her warmth and dedication have made a lasting impact, and she leaves with our deepest appreciation.
