SBU Libraries is very pleased to announce that Caterina Reed-Araujo, Instructional Support Associate in SBU Libraries’ Content Acquisitions and Services Department, has been selected as an American Library Association (ALA) Emerging Leader for 2022! This is a great honor and opportunity for Caterina and we are grateful to her for representing SBU Libraries in this important role. We look forward to seeing her contributions to this prestigious program and continuing to support her professional development and career goals.

The ALA Emerging Leaders program is a national leadership development program that allows newer library professionals from across the country to participate in problem-solving work groups, network with peers, gain an inside look into ALA structure, and serve the profession in a leadership capacity. Caterina’s participation in the program is being sponsored by the University Libraries Section (ULS) and the Distance and Online Learning Section (DOLS) of the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) and will receive additional support through SBU Libraries.

Congratulations, Caterina!
