Academic Statement

I am a research librarian and bibliographer with more than twenty years of public services experience in academic librarianship, primarily in reference and information services, but also in access services. My practitioner, teaching, and research interests focus on the assessment of resources and services, especially in the social sciences. This includes database analysis, information seeking, bibliographic practice, and history research methods. I hold an MLS in Information Science & Policy from the University at Albany, State University of New York, and an MA in History from Binghamton University, State University of New York.
