Kim Detterbeck

Art Librarian (Associate Librarian)

Coordinator of Instruction

I am the art librarian at the Purchase College Library. I oversee collection development, reference, and library instruction for art history, art + design, new media, entrepreneurship in the arts (online), and arts management. My primary responsibility at Purchase College is to provide research support to the students, faculty and staff in the arts. This means I make sure the Library has the resources they need for their projects and that they know how to find and use these resources.
