Hi! I am an academic librarian and I am interested in reviewing for this project. My focus areas are scholarly communication and digital scholarship, but I participate actively in first-year information literacy instruction. I focus a great deal on digital pedagogy and copyright. I am comfortable with the content for many of the chapter descriptions but would primarily be interested in 1) Value of Information, 2) Understanding Digital Citizenship, 0r 3) Critical Approaches to Digital Literacy. ---

Hi Michelle: I am an academic librarian. I have taught information literacy credit courses for 4 years now and have been involved in the past with editing for SUNY. I would be willing to jump in where I am needed, but, my areas of interest and expertise would be best utilized in Chapter 3, Chapter 5, Chapter 6 and Chapter 8.

Hi @gesina-a-phillips and @carolkunzler - thanks so much for putting your hands up to be reviewers! Given the chapters you’ve listed, Gesina, we’d like to get you started on chapter 3 for now, and Carol, we might get you working on chapter 5. How does that sound? Let me know if it suits and I’ll be in touch via email tomorrow to give you access to the content and to discuss due dates & any questions. Depending on how many others show an interest in reviewing we may ask you to take on others once they’re submitted, but given the time of year, we expect we might have more of a response in the new year. Thanks again for being the first on board though, very pleased to be working with you both 🙂 ---

Hello! I’m also an academic librarian interested in reviewing for this project. I work primarily with open access/scholarly communication, copyright, and digital scholarship/projects, so I’m particularly interested in chapters 6, 7, or 8, but am happy to help with whatever is needed. Thanks! Anna Newman Open Access Specialist, Boston University ---

@newmanaa Hi Anna, great to hear from you! Thanks so much for offering to act as a reviewer. We’re expecting chapters 6 & 7 to be submitted in the next couple of weeks, so once we have them in hand I’ll be in touch again to get you set up. As I mentioned to Gesina and Carol, we’ll likely get you started with one chapter at first, then if we don’t find anyone else for the others we’ll take you up on the offer for the others. Thanks again and you’ll hear from us again soon! ---

Hi y’all. This looks like a great project. I’d be happy to review Chapter 1 or Chapter 8. I’m a faculty in English and have an interest in digital pedagogy. My research deals with the relationship between information sciences and mass media. And I used to teach in a program at Washington State U called Digital Technology and Culture, where I organized a digital literacy workshop series and taught a class on Information Structures. Last year I contributed a short chapter on digital literacy to the Rebus book on Creating Open Textbooks with Students based on my work at WSU. ---

Hello! (Another) academic librarian here interested in reviewing chapters if needed. I’m a subject liaison to communication and media studies, and have been working on with our public speaking program to support their integration of information literacy into their curriculum. I also do freelance work curating open content for courses (mostly social science and business). My experience is probably a good fit for chapters 6 through 8. ---
