The initiative to help articulate the value of academic libraries; the development of the information literacy framework; the educational efforts and programming (institutes, conference programs) on scholarly communication.

What do you as an academic librarian contribute to your campus?

The ability to work outside of silos and bring a broader perspective to issues; ensuring that the Library is engaged in initiatives focused on student success, digital scholarship, and data management.

In your own words

It is extraordinarily rewarding to be a part of a vibrant campus community where your work can impact thousands of students and faculty as they pursue their research and learning. It is also rewarding to be part of a profession that is passionate about ensuring that the work of researchers is broadly accessible and preserved for the betterment of our society. How very fortunate I have been!
