[Ucrfacultyandstaff] Interim University Librarian

[UCR Provost]

Dear Colleagues,



I am pleased to share that Tiffany Moxham, UCR’s Deputy University
Librarian, will serve as Interim University Librarian, effective June 28,
upon the retirement of Steven Mandeville-Gamble.



During her appointment, Tiffany will assume all responsibilities of the
University Librarian, including operations management, budget oversight,
personnel administration, and implementation of policies. Tiffany has
served as Deputy University Librarian since 2018, providing collaborative
vision, strategic leadership, and operational oversight for the Content and
Discovery Division, as well as key administrative functions including
Library Human Resources. She joined the Library in 2014 as Coordinator of
Medical Library Programs, bringing over a decade of experience developing
information specialist services for emerging medical schools. Her work
focused on instruction, research support, systematic reviews, and outreach.



Tiffany’s research interests were shaped during her early career in the
United Kingdom, where she contributed to secondary research reviews and
evidence synthesis projects, including *Clinical Evidence* at the BMJ
Group, Cochrane Reviews, and Health Technology Appraisals with the
Peninsula Technology Assessment Group. She has authored multiple systematic
reviews and has published on the effectiveness of search strategies in
qualitative research.



Tiffany holds a Master’s of Library and Information Science (MLIS) from the
University of South Florida and an MBA from the University of Cumbria in
the UK.



A national search will be concluded in the coming months to select the next
permanent University Librarian. During this interim period, Tiffany and I
will work closely to ensure the continued success of the UCR Library.
Please join me in welcoming Tiffany into this interim role.

Sincerely,


Liz
