Univ. of Toronto: New Public Service Librarian

I am pleased to announce that Helen Tang has accepted the position of the Public Service Librarian at the Cheng Yu Tung East Asian Library and the Richard Charles Lee Canada-Hong Kong Library, starting  October 1st, 2015.

Helen received her MLIS from the University of British Columbia (UBC) in 2013. She holds a BA (1995) in English of Science and Technology and MA (2002) in Applied Linguistics from the South China University of Technology.  She had taught for more than 10 years at the college level in Guangzhou, China. Prior to joining UTL, Helen served as the Pacific and Asian Studies Subject Librarian at the University of Victoria Libraries.  In this role, she provided a full range of library services, including reference, instruction, collection development and liaison to library users. In addition to English, she speaks fluent Mandarin and Cantonese, which will be an asset for her to provide excellent public service to the increasingly diverse user group in both libraries. 

Please join us in welcoming Helen to the University of Toronto Libraries.
