Mary Lou Baker Jones, CoSM Librarian retires

After 19 years of service, Science and Mathematics' Librarian, Mary Lou Baker Jones is retiring.  She has presented posters and panels at local, state, national and international conferences and co-authored articles on teaching chemical literature and on the challenges of filling academic science librarian positions. She was instrumental in expanding the library’s involvement with the Exploring STEMM program (among her many other efforts). Over the years she has team-taught a Chemistry course and she has been consulted by faculty on lesson plans, grading rubrics, and assignments. She worked with Jeff Wehmeyer, who for many years was the life sciences librarian for biology and microbiology as well as for the Health Sciences, and Brian Olesko who is the current librarian for Psychology.

Mary Lou has contributed to many scholarly efforts, always with a smile and the right questions to guide the investigator to the precise reference material.   We extend our sincere thanks and congratulations to Mary Lou as she embarks on a new chapter in life.
