Jillian Ewalt, librarian for visual resources at the University of Dayton’s Marian Library, is the 2019 recipient of the Sister M. Claude Lane, O.P., Memorial Award given by the Society of American Archivists (SAA) in conjunction with the Society of Southwest Archivists. The award honors an archivist who has made a significant contribution to the field of religious archives.
Ewalt has been active in a number of religious archives organizations including the Catholic Research Resources Alliance (CRRA). As an early member and contributor to CRRA, Ewalt led the submission of more than 200 records for finding aids and digital images. Thanks to her active research agenda, Ewalt has made several contributions to the literature on religious archives, publishing in Archival Issues, Theological Librarianship, and Catholic Library World, among others. She has also presented at CRRA’s annual meeting on issues related to research with Catholic archives. Ewalt’s work in preservation, description, and outreach allows students to experience archival collections in the classroom and provides scholars from around the world with access to the library’s religious archival collections.
One of Ewalt’s supporters notes that she brings “a collaborative, creative, service-oriented spirit to her work with faith-based collections. She is committed to promoting collections as research and teaching tools and has developed collaborative partnerships across the institution and community to increase the impact of Marian Library’s special collections.”
I can handle regular homework, but big research papers and lab write-ups on top of midterms? That’s a different story. One particularly bad week, I looked into whether I could pay someone to do my homework and ended up on https://community.essaypro.com/writing-research/post/can-i-pay-someone-to-do-my-homework-mJ04UvcQ3EjwGJ8 .It kept me from pulling two all-nighters in a row.
I didn’t realize how much time I was wasting on my phone until I started catching myself scrolling for no reason even when I had important things to do. It gets especially bad when you’re tired or trying to avoid stressful tasks, because suddenly “five minutes” turns into an entire evening. I was looking into apps to stop doomscrolling after reading an explanation from someone describing the same habit, and honestly it made me more aware of how automatic all that scrolling had become without me even noticing.
