Hi everyone,

I’d like to encourage everyone to send me information on your research/scholarly activities including presentations, publications, and grants or awards received.  I’d also love to hear about research/scholarly activities in progress.  By gathering this information I can start a process of sharing this information widely within (and possibly outside of) the library.  I know there is much going on that needs to be shared and celebrated. I will coordinate this information and set up regular notifications of what’s happening at the UBC Library in research/scholarly activities.

Dr. Kathryn Hornby
