About
John Dupuis
I'm head of the Steacie Science & Engineering Libary, York University, Toronto, Ontario. My collections and liaison areas include engineering, computer science, earth and space science, information technology and science & technology studies. I also sit at the reference desk, do information literacy classes and all the other assorted academic library stuff.
These days my main research and professional development interests include the future of academic libraries, the use of blogging for professional development and the use of web 2.0 technologies by academic communities such as scholars and publishers.
You can find selected publications and presentations on YorkSpace.
