On Thursday, March 8, the UK Women’s Forum named UK Librarian Gail Kennedy the 2012 Sarah Bennett Holmes Award faculty recipient. The prestigious award, named in honor of former UK Dean of Women Sarah Bennett Holmes, has been given annually since 1994 to women working at the University who promote the growth and well-being of other women at UK. Ann Bassoni, UK Work Life Department, received the 2012 staff award. A record 60 women were nominated for the two awards this year.
Gail was praised for exemplifying the finest qualities of Sarah Bennett Holmes: dedication to the University of Kentucky over her 40+ year career, commitment to librarianship and family, and service to profession and community.
