LA Southwest

Los Angeles Southwest College Library has a new Dean, Dr. Allison Moore.  Dr. Moore is currently LASC Academic Senate President and is stepping down from those duties to assume responsibility for the LASC Library among other departments as the new Dean of Academic Affairs.

The newly remodeled LASC Library opened on February 2, 2015 in a three story facility.  We are excited to be out of the temporary library and operating in our new space.

Tim Ream was recently hired as a new full-time Librarian with LA Southwest College. Prior to arriving at LASC, Tim worked as the Emerging Technology Librarian at Charles R. Drew University of Medicine and Science for the past 3 years. He also worked as an Adjunct Librarian at Irvine Valley College since 2010. Before becoming a Librarian, Tim worked in the legal and non-profit fields in the IT and web development fields. Mr. Ream received his B.A. in Political Science from UCLA, and his MLIS from San Jose State University. Recently, Tim also completed a Post-Master’s Certificate in Emerging Technologies and Digital Libraries from San Jose State University in 2014. When not working, Mr. Ream enjoys spending time with this wife May and new daughter Emily. From time-to-time he can also be found trying out different spicy foods and attempting to surf.
