Library Responsibilities
I am the Digital Projects Librarian at Appalachian State University Libraries. I do outreach to find faculty, staff, students, and community partners interested in creating digital collections. I work with them to digitize physical items and locations; organize, describe, and display digital objects; and create digital exhibitions and collections. I also work with faculty to integrate digital exhibition software and collection creation into class projects.
