LIBRARY STAFF
Each member of our leadership team brings their own unique gifts and talents to the library, but is united by a passion for Saint Francis, a love of books, a thirst for knowledge, a desire to serve (especially the homeless), and a commitment to excellence. And although we are all cross-trained and share the seemingly never-ending work load, each staff member is responsible for a specific area of the library:
- Br. Allen A. White, OSF | Director, Curator, Archivist
- Dr. Frances Mallow Taylor | Head Librarian | Research
- Cathy Sullivant | Librarian | Catalog & Collections
- Debbie Johnson | Associate Librarian | Community Relations
- Susan Fratcher | Associate Librarian | Community Relations
INTERFAITH COMMITTEE
In addition to our staff, we are thankful to the members of the Hope Center Houston Interfaith Committee for their collective wisdom, guidance, encouragement and support of the Saint Francis of Assisi Research Library.
- Debbie Johnson, Chairperson
