I have been managing the Chemistry Library since October 2013 and for 15 years before that I managed the University's Zoology Department library so I have experience of supporting biological and physical science researcher needs. At Chemistry I train all new postgraduate students in RDM and give advice on compliance with open access and data sharing mandates.

As Marshall Librarian I have taken an active role in supporting the Faculty of Economics with research. I have experience of supporting Open Access and Copyright.
