Congratulations to Kari Chrenka! Chrenka received two awards recently related to her work as the Coordinator for Marketing and Branding at CMU Libraries.
Chrenka was awarded the Staff Excellence Award from Central Michigan University for her exemplary job performance and service to others. The award is given annually to recognize outstanding staff who are nominated by their university peers and colleagues. When asked what motivates her, Chrenka replied, she “enjoys working with others to overcome challenges, solve problems, and work through obstacles.” Chrenka was one of ten employees to receive the award for the 2018-2019 school year.
Chrenka also received the PR Xchange Award from the American Library Association (ALA). She was honored for the design of the exhibit booklet, Aristocracy on the Saginaw Trail: Alexis de Tocqueville in Michigan. The booklet, written by John Fierst, was created to accompany the Clarke Historical Library’s Fall 2018 exhibit. The award is given each year by the ALA to recognize the design of promotional materials from libraries across North America.
Kari rocks!!
