Data Champions Search

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. I have also completed Masters level training in RDM in my previous role at University of Sheffield. Craig Peacock, IT Manager in Economics, and I are working together as Research Data Champions in the Faculty. We are exploring training opportunities for undergraduates and all new postgraduate students in RDM and we have also given advice on completing ESRC Data Management Plans to academic staff making grant applications.

In my role as Library Manager (Biological Sciences) I support STEMM students and researchers across the School of Biological Sciences. I have worked in a variety of different roles over the years and have worked with different groups such as business students and polar scientists. I teach regularly on various research topics and manage library services in the departments of PDN, Genetics, Plant Sciences and Zoology.

Additional areas of expertise:

Social media use in research, Research communication and outreach, Public engagement, Creative Commons, Open sharing.

As the librarian at the Department of Genetics, I provide research support for students and staff in the department and more broadly across the School of Biological Sciences. I can advise on Open Research issues, as well as teaching on various research skills topics in both school- and university-wide programme
