ShipVotes is a non-partisan voter registration coalition on the campus of Shippensburg University. This fall semester, library faculty led the coalition and used it as a tool in promoting both voting and information literacy. The outreach allowed the library to reach audiences and campus partners that were instrumental in promoting library resources and civic literacy.

Eyoel Delessa received his Master of Library & Information Science from the University of Maryland, College Park in 2015. After graduating, he worked as a Youth Services Librarian in Prince George’s County, MD from 2016-2108, an Adult Services Librarian in Montgomery County, MD from 2018-2020, and currently serves as the Reference, Outreach, and Instruction Librarian at Shippensburg University.
