Nicole Garst’s Summary

I am interested in the way organizations (public, nonprofit, and private) and their constituencies use information. I am particularly interested in social media, communications, writing, information architecture, Web design and instructional design as it relates to professional training. I'm interested in libraries as social institutions, knowledge management, work flow, digital curation, usability and user experience.
