| "As part of the "frontline" of library service (making sure the library runs smoothly until midnight Sundays through Thursdays), Gavena constantly interacts with a wide spectrum of the Millikin community. A sense of humor, patience, common-sense, and above all a true desire to help the library's patrons make her an approachable source of assistance and she provides excellent service to Millikin's faculty, students, staff, administrators, and alumni. Outside the immediate Millikin community, Gavena ably assists our community patrons, who often visit Millikin for the sole purpose of using the library." Another colleague commented, "I can only say "amen" to everything that has already been said. I have worked with Gavena for over five years, and some of that time as her direct supervisor. Her service orientation toward the library's public (Millikin students, faculty and staff) is phenomenal, she is a fine colleague, and she cares about the lives of our student workers while also setting high standards and expectations for their work. Gavena is very deserving of the Employee of the Month honor." | |||
