I am available to consult with students, faculty, and staff on a wide variety of scholarly communication topics, including open access, copyright, fair use, Creative Commons licenses, publication contracts, research metrics, and so-called predatory publishers. I also help researchers publicly share their work, especially in CUNY Academic Works.
I am also the subject librarian for computer science and mathematics, informed in this work by my study of logic and computer science. Additionally, I am the librarian for audiology and speech-language-hearing sciences, drawn to these subjects because of my personal experience with hearing loss. Finally, I am the librarian for the Public Scholarship MALS concentration and the Advanced Certificate in Public Scholarship, as well as the selector of books about disability and accessibility.
My own research focus is scholarly communication, broadly construed: Recent projects look at concerns surrounding open access dissertations, attitudes about practice-based library literature, and the professional experiences of hard of hearing librarians. I am also co-founder and managing editor of the Journal of Graduate Librarianship.
