Position title: Library Assistant

How long have you worked for the library:
I have been working at the library for about two and a half years.

What made you want to work in libraries? 
I’ve always wanted to work at a library since I had the opportunity to work with my middle school librarian. I enjoy being surrounded by books and working in quiet environments, so working at a library would be a dream come true. Similarly, I have always wanted to learn more about the inner workings of what goes on in a library besides checking in and out books. Working at this job has provided me the opportunity to achieve that goal, while learning new information such as 3D printing and Libguides. 

What do you like most about your job and about working for ATSU?
What I like the most about my job is getting to work with an array of wonderful people and being able to work with 3D printers. Working at ATSU has been a wonderful experience and I hope I get to continue working with my amazing coworkers. 

What is a fun/unique/exciting tidbit to know about you, or how do you spend your free time?
A few fun facts about me is I like to collect enamel pins from media I enjoy and have a calico cat named Fleur. During my free time, I like to draw and bike whenever it is warm out.

A.T. Still University-Arizona School of Health Sciences (ATSU-ASHS) Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) students reflected on their patient care experiences and expressed them through impactful artwork showcased at the annual DPT Art Show on Wednesday, Nov. 19, 2025. 

Organized by Jeffrey Andrion, PhD, PT, MA, associate professor, and hosted by the A.T. Still Memorial Library, the show challenged students to interpret complex case studies through the visual arts. This year’s theme was “Vulnerability and Empathy: Understanding the Human Experience Through the Arts.”

Additionally, the library revealed and presented three art pieces created by ATSU students, which have been permanently added to the library’s art wall collection.

By delving deeper into the emotional aspects of the patient experience, students strengthened their understanding of whole person healthcare and highlighted the importance of empathy in clinical practice.
