Redfield began working at CCU in 2003. She has been a librarian for 33 years, holds a master’s degree in library science from Indiana University, and is a liaison to the Business and Global Studies Department at CCU. She also serves on CCU’s Faculty Affairs Committee. According to CCU Library Director Gayle Gunderson, "Gretchen is an enthusiastic and dedicated librarian and a strong supporter of information sharing and training. She will represent our University well in benefiting the wider academic library community."

CCU's Clifton Fowler Library provides services and collections for students, staff, and faculty at the University's main Lakewood campus and regional learning centers in Grand Junction, Loveland, Colorado Springs, and elsewhere. The Library also maintains a virtual network, entitled Library Web, which offers online resources and journal and reference databases to adult and distance learning students. The library faculty aims for high-quality integration of the University's academic, faith, and student-learning mission.

"We are thrilled at Gretchen's invitation to attend the Library of Congress seminar," commented CCU president Bill Armstrong. "Our University employs a faculty and staff who work hard to maintain high scholastic standards. This gesture from the Library of Congress is a confirming nod that we are headed in the right direction."
