Author: I was the library director of a community health library in San Diego from January 2004 until October 2006, combining public and special (community health) librarianship. In November 2006, I moved to a new phase of my career with UCSF Fresno, combining hospital and academic librarianship. The content of this website reflects my interests. My current blog is: Keeping Current in Medical Librarianship
