UBC Master of Archival Studies/ Master of Library Information Studies Student
As part of my ARST 587 Preservation course assignments at the iSchool@UBC, I created two preservation reports for a secondhand copy of a pocketbook edition of Victor Hugo's "Les Misérables."
As part of our final outreach project for LIBR 548X Social Media and Digital Outreach, my course peers, our professor Dr. Erik Kwakkel, and I put together an exhibition promoting some of the many facsinating items in the University of British Columbia Rare Books and Special Collections holdings.
In October 2018, as part of the course ARST 516 Management of Current Records, I gave a presentation on the ongoing and worsening problem of the improper disposal of paper medical records. Inspired by a recent study by Baxter et al. (2018), this presentation addressed the issue, relevant legislation, secure disposal methods, potential consequences, and suggestions moving forward. On January 23, 2019, I adapted this presentation for a talk at Molecular You, a digital health company in Vancouver.
