The Library is pleased to announce the appointment of Laura Pavlech as the new Biomedical and Life Sciences Librarian.
Pavlech recently received her master of science in library science from the University of North Carolina School of Information and Library Science.
For the past two years, she has worked in the User Services department of the UNC Health Sciences Library, where she has helped students, faculty, and staff from the Schools of Medicine, Dentistry, Pharmacy, Nursing, and Public Health.
Prior to becoming a librarian, Pavlech was a practicing veterinarian. She received her undergraduate degree in biology from Stonehill College, and her doctor of veterinary medicine from Tufts University. Pavlech completed an internship in small animal medicine and surgery at the University of Georgia Veterinary Teaching Hospital. She then pursued residency training in clinical nutrition at North Carolina State University Veterinary Health Complex.
Pavlech is excited for the opportunity to combine her science and medical background with her library experiences to work with the students, faculty, and staff of Brown University. She also looks forward to returning to New England. Pavlech originally hails from Connecticut.
