A chronicle of my activities is available in the NEWS section.
WELCOME to my personal academic website. I am an Associate Professor at the Faculty of Information, University of Toronto. As an interdisciplinary social scientist devoted to the field of Library and Information Science (LIS), I have conducted research in three related areas: 1) Information and the "higher things in life" that are pleasurable and profound; 2) Visual and creative research methodologies (and methods); and 3) the History and theory of LIS. A selection of writings within these themes and many full-text PDFs are available in RESEARCH AND PUBLICATIONS, or you can survey my work as a Google Scholar profile.
In 2020, I learned to make videos and launched INFIDEOS, a YouTube channel of educational videos about Information Science. Its purpose is to share the ideas of Information Science with the world. The 100+ original (and sometimes outrageous) videos at INFIDEOS may be useful to students, researchers, and practitioners of LIS. In 2022, INFIDEOS won the ALISE/Pratt-Severn Faculty Innovation Award. Presently, I am devoted to video-making and publish new videos, monthly. Here, I offer a friendly Shout Out! to the students, worldwide, who are watching and learning at INFIDEOS. |
Here's the channel trailer for INFIDEOS. |
In the Master of Information program at the Faculty of Information, it is my great pleasure to teach graduate students in the Library and Information Science concentration. At the same time, students in other concentrations are most welcome in my courses. On the TEACHING page you will find a list of my courses, syllabi, course evaluations, and reading guides; my teaching philosophy; and references for my writings on teaching. A separate area on ADVISING recognizes the former and current doctoral and masters students I have supervised.
