Congratulations Ray!

Congratulations to REFORMA LA Chapter member, Raymundo Andrade of the William H. Hannon Library staff, the 2013 recipient of the Barbara Bonney Staff Member of the Year Award.

The Barbara Bonney Staff Member of the Year Award is presented annually to an LMU staff member who has shown continual excellence, commitment to the ideals of higher education, leadership and initiative within one's area or the university as a whole, as well as a unique contribution to improving the quality of life at LMU and public service to the LMU community.

“Back in 2010, led by Library Assistant Raymundo Andrade, we created a bilingual ‘Library Orientation and Tour’ workshop geared towards predominantly Spanish-speaking staff in the university’s Facilities department in response to a growing awareness that this constituency was notably absent from any existing library outreach efforts. Because these staff members do not require a computer to perform the greater part of their job (thus keeping them “offline), it was challenging to promote this workshop via our usual electronic methods such as email, the library’s homepage, e-newsletter, or news blog. Instead, we used grassroots efforts and word-of-mouth networks on campus to get the word out and generate support for this workshop.

In partnership with faculty, staff, and student volunteers from all across campus, Andrade redesigned the workshop to start with the very basics, and during 2011-2012, drew between 5-12 engaged attendees to each weekly drop-in session where bilingual volunteers were available to assist them one-on-one with exercises such as using a computer mouse, keyboard, and the very basics of web browsing. ” Quote from LMU’s  library’s Annual Review, written by Jamie Hazlitt.
