Following a national search, the Cushing/Whitney Medical Library’s (CWML) own Holly Grossetta Nardini was appointed Associate Director of the library. Holly first joined the Yale University Library in 1992 as assistant to the University Librarian, Penny Abell. Two years later she transitioned to the CWML as reference librarian and as the library’s first webmaster. She left Yale in 1996 when she was selected as an Associate Fellow at the National Library of Medicine in Bethesda, MD. She returned to Yale in 2000 as YUL’s Service Quality Improvement Director, before once again transitioning to the CWML in 2003 to help launch the library’s liaison program. Most recently Holly has served as the coordinator for the library’s systematic review service, while also providing research support to the departments of Radiology, Ob/Gyn, Ophthalmology, and Pediatrics. 

In her new role Holly will provide leadership and vision for both the library’s research and education services and its technology and innovation initiatives and programs. She will assist the director in overall leadership and management of the Medical Library, and will help set strategic priorities and goals to ensure the delivery of exceptional services, collections, research tools, and innovations to our users.

Please join me in congratulating Holly on her new position, and in thanking her for her remarkable service to the library. She assumed her new responsibilities on November 1st, and will be transitioning to her new role over the coming months.
