Tell us a bit about your role at UT Libraries.
I am the University Library’s liaison to our library counterparts at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), including the Bredesen Center for Interdisciplinary Research. Two of the current doctoral programs that I support include Data Science and Energy Science, but it’s a role that is growing fast! In addition to discovering new sources of information, they can integrate into their interdisciplinary work, these graduate students are often interested in getting help for questions about publication, how to use LaTeX, and how to navigate access to data sources. As part of my liaison role, I hope to help UT Libraries continue to advance the support of graduate education at the intersection of universities and laboratories.
What is the one thing you wished students knew about you and/or UT Libraries.
Thanks to the hard work of my colleague, Lizzie Cope, we have a great resource for referencing the available of library-licensed content for text and data mining (TDM) at https://libguides.utk.edu/textanddatamining/datasources. This resource continues to grow as the Libraries advocates for TDM scholarship as part of both new and existing agreements.
