A special honour...
It was with profound respect that we unveiled the Dr. Marnie Rice Memorial Library at the June 2 Annual General Meeting.
Dr. Rice dedicated 40 years of her career at this hospital with much of that time as Director of Research. Her work was widely recognized, receiving many accolades including Ontario’s Amethyst Award for Outstanding Achievement by Ontario Public Servants, which was awarded to Dr. Rice and her team.
This honour is not only in recognition of Dr. Rice’s career, but also her lengthy list of contributions to the community and the fields of psychology and mental health research around the world. During the dedication, Dr. Rice’s husband Greg noted how fitting it is to have the library named in her honour as she was a voracious reader and loved to read everything about her field of study.
If you have a chance to visit our campus, you’ll find the library on the main floor of the Atrium building.
