Change in the architecture library

Andrea Gappel completed her Bachelor's degree in Library and Information Management at the Stuttgart Media University. She started her professional career at the University and State Library in Düsseldorf before moving to Karlsruhe in 2021. There, she first worked in the library of the University of Education and then spent two years in the Infocompetence team at the KIT library. During this time, she developed and led training courses on research skills and literature management.

She is now ready for the next step: "I'm looking forward to the wide range of activities that arise in a specialist library and cover all facets of the library profession."

In April 2025, Andrea Gappel will take over the management of the specialist library for architecture from Gabriele Seipel, who retired in February after more than 40 years of service.
