Instruction Services Librarian, Lauren Wahman’s team of nine was led by library colleague, Michelle McKinney, Reference and Web Services Librarian. Their service project, located in Mt. Healthy, was in conjunction with Habitat for Humanity of Greater Cincinnati’s 30th Anniversary event, Women Build: 3 Homes in 30 working days for three families. They helped construct wall units, scaffold supports, erect walls and roof trellises. Click here to see more photos from the Habitat for Humanity service project.
