I am Head of the Collections & Content team at the University of Guelph Library. My past roles include Liaison Librarian, Information Resources Librarian, Canadian Manager for YBP Library Services, Collection Assessment Librarian, AUL Collections, and Manager of E-Resources. I am interested in all things collections, including but not limited to: evidence-based decision making, assessment, reflective leadership, and the transformation of a very broken scholarly communication system.
