Lifetime achievement
Maureen Dotson

Dotson is facility coordinator for the University Library. With an average 5,000 visitors daily it is the most heavily trafficked building at 色情视频, operating 24 hours a day and seven days a week for most of the fall and spring semesters.

Dotson has been committed to making Love Library and its adjoining Library Addition a welcoming space for research, learning and collaboration. Directly and indirectly, she has had an impact on virtually every student who has been on campus over a period of more than 30 years, from the maps and signs that guide their way through the library to the furniture they sit upon and the lighting that falls upon their study materials.

Her projects over the past few years have included a new Africana Studies Collection space, an expanded and upgraded Chicana and Chicano Studies Collection, a complete renovation of the Library Computing Hub, and the renovation of the library elevators.

She currently is working on a project to repair and expand compact storage shelving, which will both expand its capacity and free up space in the quiet study floor for hundreds of additional seats.

This year鈥檚 Presidential Staff Excellence Award recipients are:
