This blog was originally posted in 2015. Over the weekend, Starrett City Library Assistant Rita Hilu passed away. Rita was an incredibly important member of the Touro College Libraries staff, and we want to remind everyone of what made her so special to students, faculty, and staff.
After receiving many positive comments and remarks by Starrett City students and faculty on the Annual Customer Satisfaction Survey in December, Ms. Rita Hilu, our wonderful library staff at Starrett City, responds in her own words with gratitude and encouragement:
Dear students:
All of us are working very hard to reach our goals. I really appreciate your kind words and comments for the Starrett City library. Just remember: I’m always here, ready to help you with all your endeavors.
Never, never, ever give up!!!! I’m very proud of each one of you!!!!
Yours,
Rita Hilu
While not our largest library or campus with the highest enrollment, Starrett City’s welcoming environment and dedicated Library Assistant made it the most visited library in the entire Touro system for the 2013-2014 academic year.
