Students got hands on with Special Collections, learned about doing undergraduate research at Lehigh, and tested their knowledge about Asa Packer in the first ever library-style escape room, Linderman Lockdown!

In memoriam: Siddarth “Sid” Panicker

Siddarth “Sid” Panicker, former LTS help desk student consultant and Library circulation desk supervisor (2015-2017), died unexpectedly this fall at the age of 27. Sid completed his master’s degree in industrial and systems engineering in 2017, and on graduation he assumed a position at Faurecia, an automotive engineering company in Indiana.

Library and Technology Services remembers Sid fondly as a service-minded, professional colleague and a kind and generous individual. We offer our condolences to his friends and family.
