Welcome to Our New Library Dean!


Dr. Jose Aguiñaga became the Dean of the Library and Instructional Support last July. He comes to Rio from Glendale Community College in Glendale, Arizona, where he headed the North campus’ Library Computer Center. Previously he was a librarian in Cal State Long Beach and the University of San Diego.

Dr. Aguiñaga serves on various committees of the Association of College and Research Libraries, a  division of the American Library Association (ALA). He is also a member of the ALA affiliate REFORMA, the National Association to Promote Library and Information Services to Latinos and the Spanish Speaking. He has authored articles in library journals, contributed chapters to books on the library profession, and presented at national conferences. Outside the academe, though, he wears the hat of the San Diego Padres, of which he is an avid fan.

We are delighted to welcome him to the Rio family and to the library. Say hello to him when you see him around campus!
