WORK EXPERIENCE:

April 2009-present Associate University Librarian for Innovative User Services, Oregon State University, Corvallis, OR

Leadership

I lead three library departments: Research and Innovative Services; Instruction and User Services; Emerging Technology Services.

Aug. 2002-March 2009 Instruction Coordinator, George Washington University, Washington, DC

Leadership

I lead the Education and Instruction Group (EIG), comprised of 11 librarians, in implementing the library’s instruction and information literacy program. In early 2005, a task force of EIG developed a three-year strategic plan with three main goals. We have used this document in our planning and development of collaborations with the History and American Studies department.

I also work intensely with the coordinators of Reference, Collection Development, and Electronic Resources to coordinate overall public service efforts. Since the librarians the coordinators supervise work in multiple areas (instruction, reference, and collection development), it is imperative for us to discuss and plan upcoming projects, create a shared understanding of annual goals, and take a long term vision for operational planning. To facilitate this understanding, I meet weekly with the Coordinator of Reference Services and monthly with the Coordinators Group.

As coordinator of EIG, I plan weekly meetings, set agendas, arrange guest speakers, assign projects and appoint task forces. Through my efforts on the university’s Writing Program Task Force, which developed a new writing program for the university, the library became integrated into the freshmen component of the program and each section includes at least two library instruction sessions. This partnership increased the number of instruction sessions 66% in five years from 212 in AY 02-03 to 627 in AY 06-07.

Supervision

I provide overall supervision for 6 instruction librarians, which includes meeting with each librarian monthly, writing annual performance appraisals, and writing supporting documentation for reappointment and promotion. With librarians new to the organizations, I meet with them on a weekly basis for at least the first two months. I assist the new librarians in setting goals and priorities, provide feedback after visiting an instruction session, clarify procedures for procedural documentation, and review preliminary documents for reappointment. Additionally I contribute to the performance appraisals of an additional 6 librarians who provide instruction but whose main priority is either collection development or reference and report to those coordinators.

Outreach/Collaboration

I coordinate the activities of EIG librarians, including outreach to faculty, teaching style, assessment, and distance education. Over the last two years, I have worked to integrate research skills into the History and American Studies curriculum. Both have been successful collaborations, incorporating research into the senior thesis classes for each discipline.

I teach approximately 15 instruction sessions a semester, working mainly with the Freshmen University Writing 20 (UW20) course. For all my sessions, I work collaboratively with faculty to design and teach library instruction sessions, including the joint design of pre-assignments that students complete before coming to class. The faculty-librarian partnerships for UW20 are established by the Director of First-Year Writing and myself. I also served as co-chair of the campus-wide University Writing Advisory Council from AY03-04 through AY04-05. The council consisted of faculty members representing each school on campus. During my time as co-chair, I worked to create a Blackboard for the council where we could have discussions and post meeting minutes and other documents. I also communicated the council’s activities to Don Lehman, GWU’s Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs.

2003-2009 Librarian Partner, George Washington University, University Writing 20 (UW20)

The University Writing Program is part of the University’s strategic planning efforts to enhance academic excellence at GW and includes UW20 and Writing in the Disciplines courses. Each semester, I partner with at least three faculty members teaching UW20. I meet with each faculty member multiple times throughout the semester to discuss their course, assignments, and instruction session goals and objectives. For each section of UW20, I provide at least two instruction sessions. These sessions are jointly taught with the faculty to fully integrate the research skills into the course content.

My contact information is provided on the syllabus and students get in touch with me throughout the semester with questions related to their assignments and often for other courses they are taking. For one professor, I also hold mandatory small group conferences with students. Students also ask for me at the Reference Desk because I am familiar with their assignment and the resources they need to find.
