Jo Harcus (she/her) - Philosophy Librarian                     

About me: when I'm not caring for my mum, I enjoy walking (especially by the sea), reviving my love of sewing (I have lots of unfinished projects in my stash) and reading (especially nature writing and Japanese fiction). 

Where you can find me: you can usually find me in my office (next to the computing area) or at the library desk.  If I'm not there, I'm usually meeting with colleagues or helping someone elsewhere in the library.

Things I can help you with: responding to your feedback about your library (including book recommendations), literature searching and solving your referencing conundrums, but you can ask me anything, even if you think it might not be library-related.

Victoria Moreland (she/her) - Senior Library Assistant

About me: I enjoy travelling and exploring historical sites, crocheting cute things and of course, reading! My favourite genres are historical fiction and thrillers (Stephen King is one of my favourites). I also love heavy metal - gigs are my happy place and 90% of my wardrobe is band merch.

Where you can find me: I can usually be found at the library desk. If I'm not there, I'm likely to be reshelving books or working elsewhere in the library.

Things I can help you with: finding books in the library, using the computers and printing facilities, helping you navigate e-resources and answering any questions you might have!

Ana María Villaveces (she/her) - Student Invigilator

About me: I am a PhD Student in Latin American horror literature. As such, you can probably expect to find me reading some sort of horror novel 90% of the time. When that’s not what I’m up to I enjoy scrounging charity shops for the best book bargains I can find, going to the gym, and watching unreasonably long YouTube video essays. 

Where can you find me: at the library desk in the library foyer, usually on Saturdays.

Things I can help you with: finding books and materials in the library, figuring out the cataloguing system or iDiscover, seeking out literature.
