Service Interests:
Maps and geographical information systems: There are lots of wonderful site links on this page and they're all neatly catgorized. I'm changing the format of the citations gradually, so it looks a bit hodge-podge.
Digital Libraries:
I'm working quite a bit with scholarly communication and the open access movement.Copyright and fair use: in higher education. The resources I've gathered and annotated should be helpful for people building web pages. The four fair use factors are easily available as well as texts of the relevant laws.
