Hello from Your Librarian
Welcome from Your Librarian
Hi Students, my name is Melanie Sellar and your course is one that I'm supporting this quarter.
I'm the Assistant Dean for Learning & Engagement the University Library, and I also specialize in sociology and education. I've been with SCU for six years, but I have been living and working in California for the last sixteen years.
During this academic year I am hybrid working, Zooming with students and teaching workshops. I'm ready to support you through in-person or Zoom/email sessions. Don't hesitate to reach out if you are struggling to find sources.
Ways to Contact Me
You can reach me through email at msellar@scu.edu for help online or to schedule a Zoom appointment.
My policy is to respond to your emails within 24-48 hours. If it's a quick question, I may respond even sooner, whereas more complex answers will likely take the suggested timeframe (and if it's received over the weekend it will likely take until Monday).
You can also use our 24/7 chat service, embedded throughout this guide, for pressing questions that are time sensitive.
