Meet Us!

Meet Lauri! Lauri Gutierrez is our newest Chaffey College adjunct librarian. Lauri is a first-generation college student who also attended Chaffey Community College. After graduating from Chaffey, Lauri transferred to CSUF and received her BA in Psychology. She later returned to college to obtain her Master’s Degree in Library and Information Science. Lauri understands the importance of knowing how to find, evaluate, and use resources for assignments. So, if you need help with the research process, please contact Lauri through chat, email, or make an appointment. Connect with Lauri!
