The University of Alberta banner is flying at half-mast from February 2-6, 2023 in remembrance of Ms. Jeannine Green, Assistant Special Collections Librarian with the Bruce Peel Special Collections & Archives and Special Collections Librarian and Unit Head from 2004 to 2010.

We are deeply saddened by the recent passing of our dear friend and former colleague, Jeannine Green, who retired from the University of Alberta in 2010. Jeannine worked in Bruce Peel Special Collections as the Assistant Special Collections Librarian from 1981 to 2004 and as Special Collections Librarian and unit head from 2004 to 2010. She earned a bachelor’s degree (BASpec) in 1977 and a master’s degree (MLS) in 1980 from the University of Alberta. She was also a sessional instructor in the U of A’s School of Library and Information Studies where she taught History of the Book. Jeannine mentored scores of students, librarians, and library staff, and we remember her friendship and achievements with great pride. She will be missed by all who knew her.
