Celebrated Librarian’s Paper Presented at IFLA

The Stephen B. Luce Library is pleased to announce that Library Director Constantia Constantinou was selected to have her paper entitled “Towards Peace: One Library at a Time, One Nation at a Time” presented at the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions in Lappeenranta, Finland in August 2012.

Constantia’s paper highlighted the theme of the IFLA conference, “Transcending Boundaries to Increase Cultural Understanding Between Countries”, and described Constantia’s work as a 2010-2011 Fulbright Scholar in Cyprus, where she introduced new library collaborations through a highly political-ethnically sensitive environment between Turkish and Greek Cypriot library communities.  Constantia’s paper was delivered by two Fulbright recipients, Prof. M. Miller, Queens College and Prof. K. Schlesinger, Lehman College, CUNY.  

Congratulations, Constantia!
