Bio
Heather Brown
Scott is a joy to work with--one of his best qualities is his enthusiasm for every project the college takes on. He is a very approachable supervisor, because he welcomes new ideas and adapts well to change. Alexander College is lucky to have him!
Greg Leach
Scott is the kind of person who invariably goes the extra mile. When students come to him for help, he makes sure he understands what they are looking for and WHY they are looking for it, so that he can connect them with sources and information that truly helps them. He also is a terrific manager. Just as he seeks to understand the bigger picture on students’ behalf, he also makes decisions and launches initiatives as Head Librarian that serve the staff who report to him as well as members of Faculty.
