We are delighted to announce that Angela Young, Information
Skills Trainer at the Royal Free Hospital Medical Library, was nominated and
selected to be featured in the exhibition
Women
at UCL: Presence and Absence, to mark International Women’s Day 2016.
Nominations were invited from UCL staff and students for
women at UCL who have inspired or encouraged them, or made them think
differently about their work and study. Angela was nominated by colleagues who
have been inspired by her innovative approach to designing and delivering
information skills training, including leading innovation sharing events across
UCL Library Services, by the passion she has for her work, the support and
mentoring she provides to staff members and by her demonstration that it is
possible to have both a successful career and a family life by working flexibly
to achieve her goals.
The exhibition, which was opened by the Provost on March 9
th,
features 24 inspiring UCL women who were selected from around 200 nominations.
It also features material from the UCL Archives exploring women’s presence and
absence from UCL. The exhibition runs in the North Cloisters until the end of
March. See
