iSchool Alumni Association

President's Message

As President of the iSchool Alumni Association Board, I’m delighted to welcome you and to have the opportunity to connect with our incredible community of alumni.

The iSchool has a proud history in library and information science and continues to evolve in exciting ways. As the School’s academic programs, research, and areas of impact have expanded, so too has our alumni community. Our graduates are applying their education and expertise across libraries, technology, data and information management, education, research, government, industry, and countless other fields.

As an Alumni Board, we want to ensure that our work reflects the breadth of that community. We are committed to bringing together alumni from across the iSchool’s programs, professions, career stages, and geographic locations and creating meaningful opportunities for everyone to stay connected.

There are many ways to be part of the iSchool community after graduation. Whether it’s attending an alumni event, mentoring a student, sharing your professional expertise, participating in career programming, connecting with fellow alumni, volunteering with the Alumni Board, or supporting the School philanthropically, we hope you’ll find a way to engage that is meaningful to you.

As the Board continues to evolve, we’re also exploring new ways for alumni and Board members to contribute based on their interests, experiences, and availability. We want engagement with the iSchool to be both meaningful and accessible, and we welcome your ideas about how the Alumni Association can best serve our growing community.

I encourage you to stay connected through our LinkedIn groups for Undergraduate, MSLIS, and MSIM alumni and to watch for upcoming events and opportunities to get involved.

The strength of the iSchool extends well beyond campus through each of you. I’m excited about what we can accomplish together and look forward to connecting with many of you in the future.
