As students coming from marginalized communities, Peer Information Consultants can understand the unique barriers faced by students of different backgrounds. Our consultants are dedicated to supporting marginalized students in achieving their academic goals and building their confidence in accessing library resources. Everyone should get to know the library and how much we can do for you during as your college experience. Bear down!
The Peer Information Consulting program at the UA is designed to provide students at the cultural spaces and across campus with the opportunity to receive peer mentoring and research help. Our goal is to help students overcome any feelings of discomfort or intimidation in using the library space or resources. We are a newly relaunched program working diligently to make the library an inviting space for all. Come find us in the library, at certain events, and working to provide study hours for anyone who needs it!
Hello! My name is Marcia, and I'm double majoring in Spanish and Biology. This is my third year as a Peer Information Counselor! I enjoy helping students best utilize the library resources at the different cultural centers around campus. I think there are so many services like tech lending, 3D printing, and research databases, that most students are either unaware of or don't take advantage of. I speak English, Spanish, and Portuguese and hope to use these skills to better connect with students of different backgrounds. Feel free to email me or come visit during my work hours for additional help. :)
Hello! My name is Maryam, and I am a sophomore majoring in Neuroscience & Cognitive Science. In terms of career path, I am on the pre-med track, but I'm also interested in research. In my free time, I like reading, baking, listening to music, and crocheting. I spend the majority of my time at the libraries, so I’m excited to share all the great resources that the libraries has to offer. Please feel free to email me with any questions or stop by during office hours to chat and connect. I’d love to be part of your learning journey and success!
Hi! My name is Shahad, and I'm a junior majoring in Physiology and Medical Sciences on the pre-medical track. My hobbies include reading, playing video games, and spending time with my cat. Otherwise, I'm at the library during all free hours of my day, and I am more than happy to help anyone with any questions via email or my office hours!
