Welcome!
Dedicated to Penn State's vision of a student-centered university, I devote much of my time to outreach to the campus and local communities, encouraging more and better use of our vast collections. Recognizing students' transition from high school to college is often difficult, many of my research projects have focused on better serving first-year college students.
My passion is connecting people to information. In my career at Penn State, I strive to know and understand out users in order to connect teachers, learners, and researchers to information they can build into knowledge with deeper meaning.
