The Bridging to the Wolfpack team put together a fantastic full day conference and workshop for high school librarians to learn about collegiate level information literacy, instruction, research, AI, and more! Their hard work in planning such an intentional experience for librarians across the state will have huge ripple effects for first year college students successfully engaging in research and writing at NC State, coming in more prepared as their librarians "bridge" them to these higher level competencies. I am especially impressed by Shira's willingness to hit the ground running in planning and executing the event, only starting her Fellowship a year ago. She and the team listened to the needs of these librarians and immediately took action to fill the gap, ultimately benefitting the students who will join the NC State community in the future. It was such a joy to witness the day and hear positive feedback throughout from the attendees.
