CLARA M. VANA

Assistant Director of Millstein Library 

My career at the University began almost three decades ago when I accepted a position in the catalog department of Falk Medical Library. I transfered to the technical services department in Hillman Library several years later where I held positions in the Bibliographic Control Dept., Head of Standing Orders/Continuations, Head of the Gift and Exchange Dept. and Head of Receipt and Search Services. In 1988, I accepted the position of assistant librarian at the University of Pittsburgh at Greensburg Campus. Currently, as assistant director of Millstein Library I am responsible for technical services functions (cataloging, serials and acquisitions) reference, collection development and staff training.
