Todd Wiebe is head of research and instruction at Van Wylen Library. In this role he oversees the planning, promotion and implementation of all library and information literacy instruction initiatives, as well as the various research help services available. He serves on the Library Leadership Team and is responsible for developing library collections in select subject areas. In 2023鈥�2024 Todd served as interim dean of libraries at Hope.

Todd鈥檚 graduate studies in library and information science (LIS) concentrated on archival administration, but through exposure to a wide range of LIS subjects via coursework and other hands-on experiences, he found himself most drawn to working in a liberal arts college library setting as a 鈥済eneralist,鈥� teaching research/information literacy skills and working with undergraduate students.

He is active in the profession at both the state and national level and has presented and published on numerous topics related to academic librarianship and information literacy. At Hope, he has served on a wide range of teams and committees including co-chairing the General Education Revision Task Force from 2018鈥�2021.
