Profile Information

Name of Your Library:
University of Minnesota Libraries
About Me:
I am the information literacy librarian for the University of Minnesota Libraries--a large library academic library system in Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota.

I graduated in 2003 from the University of Wisconsin-Madison with my MLIS. I worked for two years at California State University, Long Beach as the Reference and Instruction Librarian and liaison to science and engineering departments. I also worked at St. Cloud State University as their instruction coordinator and librarian before starting at Capella in November 2006. I began my work at the University of Minnesota in 2008.

What is Your Interest in Library 2.0 (not yes or no)
I am very interested in using 2.0 technologies to communicate with students and to create spaces for students to communicate with each other.

Hi Paul, Not sure if I am suppose to post my response here or go to your page and respond...hmm..... Yes, here at Capella the set up used to be similar. Capella contracted with the library entrepreneurial project through Johns Hopkins Univeristy through January 2007. The library had its own database subscriptions so that didn't change.

But starting in January, Capella brought the library in-house and hired 10 librarians. We are all new on the job and providing reference, ILL, etc. and working to figure out the next ways to proceed in terms of instruction and services.

I am interested as well into your ideas about adult learners and Web 2.0 stuff.

Hi kate,

While completing my MLS at Indiana University, I worked as a reference assistant for Walden University, another online university. I am curious what types of services/facilities does your library offer? Walden had a contract with IU to help provide materials to Walden students, wondering if Capella has a similar arrangement?
