I work as the archives librarian at The Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art, a small but mighty old college in Manhattan. Other library-related things I do include:
Prison Library Support Network
Information workers responding to the information needs of incarcerated people, in partnership with New York metro-area libraries. We’re a non-hierarchal organization, so I do a bit of everything, working on fundraisers, presentations, etc.
Information access and accuracy is important! And librarians don’t hate Wikipedia. I wrote about librarians editing Wikipedia for the New York Times
Studies, presentations, etc.:
Your Instructor Will Wear Gray: A History of Color Pedagogy at the Cooper Union: presentation at Color Impact 2023, an Inter-Society Color Council event
Weighted Words: comparing the language in turn-of-the-century weight loss texts to current texts
Documents as Data: linked data project conducted in partnership with Harvard’s Villa I Tatti and presented at the 2019 Qualitative and Quantitative Methods in Libraries International Conference
