The Dr. Deborah Barreau Memorial Award for outstanding contributions to
SIG-DL has been established in memory of Dr. Deborah Barreau, a leader in
ASIS&T for many years including SIG-DL Cabinet Representative (2006),
SIG-DL Chair (2008), Leadership Development Chair (2008), Board of
Directors (2009-2011) and ASIS&T Executive Committee (2011). Dr. Barreau
served as an advocate for SIG-DL and emerging leaders within the ASIS&T
Community and she mentored many of the SIG-DL members to become active
contributors within the ASIS&T community.

Dr. Barreau was the Frances Carroll McColl Term Professor at the University
of North Carolina at Chapel Hill’s School of Information and Library
Science, where she taught for ten years. An influential researcher, her
work on personal information management in particular has been widely cited
both inside and outside the digital library field. She was a masterful
teacher, winning the school’s Award for Teaching Excellence in 2004 and in
2008, and the Outstanding Information Science Teacher International Award
from the American Society for Information Science and Technology in 2002.
Highly respected and regarded by her colleagues and students, she was known
for her dedication, commitment and kindness; exceptional mentoring
skills-offering time and advice at all hours; and for creating a classroom
environment that encouraged creativity while helping her students
understand how what they were learning was related to their own lives.
