About

My responsibilities in The College of Wooster Libraries include managing the Libraries' Federal Depository Library collection and  coordinating the work of the Research, Instruction and Digital Scholarship group within the Library. I also provide bibliographic instruction and reference service, including individual consultations, for patrons including undergraduate students, faculty, and staff. I serve as the Libraries' representative on the Five Colleges of Ohio government documents and cataloging subcommittees.

Among my activities are a presentation at the 2008 Federal Depository Library Conference titled "Getting Our Docs in a Row: The CONSORT Colleges Consolidate Four Collections",  a presentation at the 2001 Federal Depository Library Conference titled "Important Legal Resources (Yes, even in your non-law library)", a Continuing Legal Education session titled " An Introduction to the World Wide Web for Lawyers," a presentation at the Academic Library Association of Ohio (ALAO) titled " Webifying the Classroom Experience," and an article titled "The Federal Register on the Web: Purdue's World Wide Web Site" (The Internet Connection: Your Guide to Government Resources, Vol. 1, No. 10, Nov/Dec 1995).
