Donato Salvitti, our newest employee, is from San Antonio and Longview, Texas. He served eight years
in the Navy as a shipboard air traffic control radar electronics technician and as a radar systems
instructor. After the Navy, he returned to Texas to work on radiation oncology medical devices as a field
service engineer in and around the greater Houston area.

 

His fondness of libraries began at the Alkek Library, where he worked as an undergraduate student at Texas State University and was privileged to see various southwestern art exhibitions at The Wittliff Collections over the years. He graduated from Texas State University with a Bachelor’s degree in Digital and Photographic Imaging; and earned his Master’s degree in Instructional Systems Design and Technology, as well as a Graduate Certificate in Educational Technology from Sam Houston State University’s Library Science and Technology department.

 

Donato is excited to join our team and enjoys assisting at the circulation desk, helping patrons in the computer lab, and looks forward to incorporating educational technologies into the library space in the future.
