Odile Alaphilippe, Paris Campus Librarian
Hello!
My name is Vilma. I am your Global Librarian, based in Tampa, Florida, with a commitment to serving all our campuses worldwide.
Having immersed myself in the Tampa Bay area for nearly two decades, I've come to appreciate all it has to offer. I earned my Master of Library & Information Science from the University of South Florida in Tampa. Over the years, I've contributed to various libraries, spanning school, public, and academic domains. Currently calling St. Petersburg, FL, home, I share my space with my husband and our rescue dog, Hope.
My interests include beaches, culinary adventures in cooking and baking for loved ones, and savoring a good cup of coffee. Fueled by a passion for knowledge and research, I eagerly anticipate collaborating with you to achieve your academic goals.
My primary focus is on developing information literacy skills and fostering critical thinking. Your success is my top priority, and I am here to provide unwavering support on your academic journey!
Hello everyone!
My name is Verónica Ludeña, and I was born and raised in Madrid, though I have studied English from when I was only three years old.
I am a graduate of Library and Information Science from the Universidad Carlos III in Madrid and I hold a Master's degree in Audiovisual Documentation, also from the Universidad Carlos III.
My professional journey has led me through some very interesting positions, including working on television channels producing TV shows, as well as various university, and even children's libraries.
In my free time, as a good librarian, I love reading; Agatha Christie is one of my favorite authors. Also, I enjoy travelling, watching TV shows, and movies.
Hello, I am Odile, the Paris Campus Librarian for Schiller International University!
I have a Bachelor in English Studies and Civilizations, a DUT and M.A. in Information Communication (for Documentary Information Centers) and a Master’s in Information Communication specialized in Documentary Engineering.
I have worked as a private teacher, a project researcher, and a documentalist/researcher/ journalist in a local newspaper (which I still do when I have availability).
I have lived in many places, including a few months in England and seven years in Spain. I now live in Reims and I still love travelling. I have a passion for information and research.
I think the SIU libraries and the digital informational resources are essential to your studies. I look forward to helping you accessing all resources SIU offers, and search and find any document or information you may need.
Hi everyone!
I'm John Sturm and I'm the campus librarian for SIU Heidelberg.
As Campus Librarian for Heidelberg, I am responsible for supporting you on your academic journey.
I've worked in several different types of libraries since 2003, from public to government to high school and university. I hold a BSc (Hons) in Librarianship.
Whether it's the intricacies of APA or critical analysis or accessing e-Resources, so stop by to say hello! Think of the library as an AMA service... you can ask me anything and we'll work together to get you the answers that you need!
