Our newest intern is Sarah Gilchrist, a graduate student at IUPUI in library science.  She received her dual B.A. in Comparative Literature and Slavic Languages and Literature at IU.  She visited Russia during her studies.  Sarah grew up in Indianapolis, but has lived throughout the United States.  After graduating, she plans to do more international travel.

Sarah has worked in numerous libraries, where she’s honed an interest in reading, teaching, and community involvement.  Interning at IU East will give her experience with academic libraries, and she’ll be helping with creating a library concierge service, participating in the Communities in Schools Book Arts workshop, First Year Orientation, library instruction, and writing LibGuides.

 Sarah will be with us through June and July, so drop by the library and say ‘hi’ to her!
