As a research librarian at the University of Maine since 2004 I have been working
with the academic community who are looking for appropriate resources for their
assignments. My specializations are Anthropology, Art, Communication Studies, Dance,
Native American Studies, New Media, and Theatre. 

I am interested in virtual libraries and the use of social media in libraries. 

Before coming to UMaine, Orono, I was working in libraries in Boston and Sydney,
Australia.
