It is with mixed emotions that we bid farewell to Ms Maggie Melk-Sindwa, who has officially left her position as Faculty Librarian: Humanities at North-West University. While her departure marks the end of a meaningful chapter for our team, it also signals the beginning of an exciting new journey in her professional life, and for that, we couldn’t be more proud.

Ms. Melk-Sindwa has played a key role in the Information and Learning Services team at Potchefstroom Campus, demonstrating her dedication to academic excellence and student achievements. Known for her steadfast support of both the Faculty of Humanities and the wider student body, she brought passion and purpose to every interaction with library users.

As she steps into a new role beyond NWU, we commend her bravery to grow, her dedication to lifelong learning, and the example she sets for us all. Career development is not only about progressing; it’s about progressing with purpose. Ms Melk-Sindwa personifies that spirit.

We wish her every success in her new endeavour and look forward to seeing the impact she will continue to make in the Library and Information Service sector and beyond.

Thank you, Ms Melk-Sindwa, for everything. You will be missed but never forgotten.
