UICB students Suzanne Glémot and Zoë Webb were awarded the 2018 Academic Enrichment Award for Graduate Students by University of Iowa Libraries. Applications for this award are open to the libraries' student employees.

Suzanne worked last year in the Conservation Lab. She feels privileged to have the opportunity to have the experience, saying, "the breadth and depth of skills I have been acquiring provide a professional skill set that will translate directly into labs or even a private practice."

Zoë is a student employee in Special Collections. She says her work there has helped her to gain skills for her future career in archives: "I've learned practical skills like mold cleaning, specific databases, and how to recognize a book that needs help."

Congratulations Suzanne and Zoë, keep up the good work!
