Remembering Melissa Jones

Melissa Jones dedicated 18 years of service to Wilmington University and its library. She began her WilmU career as a part-time affiliate librarian at the Dover campus, later becoming the coordinator of the Dover Learning Commons, and eventually serving as the library’s first manager of the Instructional Services and Academic Collaborations team.

She loved working in the library — especially with our students. Her calm nature, easy laugh, and genuine compassion put everyone in her presence at ease. She will be remembered fondly for her kindness, her generous spirit, and her unwavering commitment to supporting students and her colleagues.
