A Librarian’s Passion for Student Success - Theodosia Adanu, Principal Librarian and Head at University of Ghana

Join us on this special episode of Raise the Line as we speak with Theodosia Adanu, Principal Librarian and Head at University of Ghana and winner of the 2022 Raise the Line Faculty Award in the Librarian category. When host Lindsey Smith asked Adanu which of the Osmosis values she resonated with most, her response was immediate. “When I think of the heart, I think of passion. I think for anyone to be able to make a difference, you ought to be passionate about things, and this is one thing I'm passionate about.”  According to her students, Adanu’s unwavering drive to affect change and encourage them to succeed are just two of the reasons she was nominated and chosen for the award. In her conversation with Lindsey, Adanu describes the parts of the job she loves most, including helping students discover and learn new things.  She also touches on concerns about information literacy. “I do my best to make sure that everybody knows about it and is practicing the tenets of information literacy. That's a gap I'd like to see through.”
