janna0607.jpgJanna Lawrence joined the Hardin Library staff as Assistant Director for Collections and Outreach in late May. Janna comes to the University of Iowa from the Briscoe Library at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, where she began her career in health sciences libraries as a library assistant and most recently served as Coordinator of Reference and Instructional Services.

After 23 years in Texas, Janna is happy to return to her Midwestern roots. A native of central Illinois, she received a BA from the University of Illinois, and a Masters in Library and Information Science from the
University of Texas at Austin. She is an active member of the Medical Library Association (MLA) and a past-president of the South Central Chapter of MLA.

Janna looks forward to working with the Hardin staff to expand the Library’s collection of electronic journals and other resources and to meeting faculty and students in her Outreach role.
