Instructors and Faculty Advisors

Lois has almost twenty-five years of teaching experience at all levels. After completing her Master of Library Science degree in 1987, she was a teacher-librarian in both elementary and secondary schools. During two years as a Learning Resources Consultant for Edmonton Public Schools, she was part of a district action research project involving the use of technology and its impact on student achievement in Grades 1 to 12.

Her interest in research and the importance of making it meaningful for all students, brought Lois back to university for further study. She completed a doctoral program in school libraries at the University of Alberta in 2004.

Lois is now retired.

Lois is a past-president of Learning Resources Council and is currently secretary of the Greater Edmonton Regional Learning Resources Council. She was awarded the NBS Teacher-Librarian of the Year Award at the Canadian Library Association conference in Victoria in June of 2004. Lois is married to Wilfred and she has three grown step-children.
