Seibert says, “Matt will work with the Academic Integration and Information & Research Assistance teams during his time here at Falvey. He will work on a variety of projects, which will give him valuable experience in research support, instructional design and collection development.”

Matt will provide additional coverage in these areas until Kristyna Carroll, coordinator of the Communication, Education, Psychology and Sociology liaison team returns at the end of the summer.

Matt grew up in nearby Swarthmore and currently lives in Philadelphia. He is enrolled in Drexel University’s Master of Library and Information Science program, which he will complete this year. Matt has a bachelor’s degree in archaeology from Washington University in St. Louis, Mo.

He completed an internship at the Marple Campus library, Delaware County Community College, and was an assistant librarian at the Lutheran Theological Seminary in Philadelphia. He is interested in history, antiques and reading.
