It is with mixed pleasure and regret that I have to announce that Gabrielle is leaving us to join the Ngāi Tahu Archives Team as an Archivist.   She is excited by new challenges and ready for new learning in the wider GLAM sector.    Ngāi Tahutanga is a passion of Gabrielle’s and she is looking forward to delving into research in the Ngāi Tahu Archives.  She is looking to continue her UC studies so it is likely we will see her in a student capacity over the next few years.

After seven years working in Macmillan Brown, this year Gabrielle took a fixed term position  working as the Library Administrator and  also part time for Te Waka Pākākano.   We have all benefited from her admirable people and organisational skills.    Her last day at UC will be 2 December.   I am really pleased for Gabrielle and wish her well in her new role.

We will look to replace the Library Administrator role.

Ngā mihi nui, Anne
