research overview

My research is currently focused on information literacy, particularly in the sciences, and an emerging interest in compassionate and sustainable crisis leadership. In information literacy, I'm especially interested in how students learn to distinguish appropriate sources in complex, interdisciplinary contexts. I am also interested in how branch libraries can effectively build community and contribute to student success.
