Sarah Falls
User Services Specialist
Sarah Falls is a User Services Specialist at ARTstor. She began her career in a variety of academic and museum art libraries as a paraprofessional, before attending the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where she earned her MSLS in 2005. It was the “cutting edge” environment of her final paraprofessional position, as an image cataloger for the Digital Library Program at the Library of Virginia that led her to SILS at UNC-CH. During her time at UNC, she held a Carolina Academic Libraries Associate position in the North Carolina collection, where she worked with photographic archives, several large ephemera collections, the North Carolina Artist Files and other materials regarding the history and heritage of the state of North Carolina. After graduation, she returned to art librarianship as the Visual Resources Librarian at the University of Richmond, from 2004 until 2008, where she was a university-wide advocate for visual literacy and the use of the image in the interdisciplinary classroom.
Additionally, Sarah holds an MA from Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey in Art History and Museum Studies and a BA in Art History from Old Dominion University. Her areas of interest are modern and contemporary art, feminist art, history of photography and new media art. She is an active member of ARLIS-NA.
