My first term on the Sabbatical and Educational Leave Committee has been an adventure, both because it has been exciting to see what faculty across campus are working on and because I've learned a lot from colleagues on the committee about evaluating sabbatical applications. I hope to be able to put what I've learned into practice during a second term. I also appreciate the opportunity to think about how the library could support the work of faculty applying for sabbaticals. Thank you for considering me for this committee.
