Current Role at Stanford

I manage a team of library specialists who assess, repair, rehouse, and prepare physical library collections for use in classes, research, exhibitions, and digital projects. I also monitor environmental conditions in collection storage areas, administer an integrated pest management program, provide library preservation training, and keep us prepared for collection emergencies throughout Stanford University Libraries.

Beyond Stanford, I collaborate with preservation professionals and informatics specialists around the world to assess practical concerns regarding standards and technology, and I publish research aimed at establishing shared methodologies for the creation of preservation data and metadata in libraries and museums.
