Welcome to my web portfolio!\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

My name is Emma Metcalfe Hurst and I am a graduate of the dual degree MASLIS program at the UBC iSchool<\/a> program, with a First Nations Concentration Curriculum (FNCC) specialization. I also hold a BFA (2016) from Emily Carr University of Art & Design<\/a> in Critical and Cultural Studies (major) and Curatorial Practice (minor). My work as an archivist and librarian is informed by my interdisciplinary work as an artist, curator, writer, designer, and recorder. <\/span>I am interested in the intersections of art production and information studies, community-based archives, intellectual property rights, archival outreach, public programming and primary source instruction. I specialize in arts librarianship, artists’ archives, and special collections.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I currently work as an Archivist \/ Special Collections Librarian (term) at the Rhode Island School of Art & Design (RISD)<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This web portfolio shares my relevant work experience and education to date, and offers a sampling of recent archival and library projects and writing that I have produced. To get in touch with me, you can e-mail me at emmametcalfehurst (at) gmail.com or visit my social media links below. My past creative projects can be found here: www.emmametcalfehurst.ca<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n
