As the Digital Resources Librarian, I focus on facilitating access to the university libraries' digital collection in support of teaching, research and learning at Wichita State University Libraries. I manage the university libraries' collection of over three million electronic books, journals and streaming titles, as well as over 300 research databases. WSU affiliates can connect to these materials, both on and off campus, through a variety of discovery points, including Google Scholar and other research databases. I also work with content vendors to improve user interfaces of research platforms to help make online interfaces and licensed content more accessible for all users. Please contact me if you have questions or issues accessing research articles, streaming videos, databases, or if you have questions about library content licenses.
