Collection Strategies and Services
As curator of the Literature and Rare Books collections in Hornbake Library, I am responsible for collecting, managing, preserving, and improving access to rare books and literary archival collections held in Special Collections. I support UMD faculty, students, and staff, as well as the general public and global research community, through reference assistance, instruction, and outreach activities.
I earned my MA in History from the University of Connecticut and my MLIS in Library and Information Science from the University of Maryland. My interests are the history of the book, printing and book arts, and the intellectual history of modern revolutions.
