A third and final candidate for the position of dean of University Libraries will be on campus May 20 to meet with faculty, staff and administrators and to give a public presentation answering the question: "How do you see University Libraries adding value to the broader mission of the University of Arkansas and higher education over the next three-to-five years?"
Angie Ohler, associate dean for content and digital initiatives at the University of Arkansas Libraries, will be the final candidate to present at 2:30 p.m. Thursday, May 20, in the School of Law's E.J.
