Metadata & Electronic Resources Librarian

https://mcgill.ca/library/librarians/carolyn-pecoskie

I've been working as the Metadata & Electronic Resources Librarian at McGill since February 2020. Previously, I worked as a hospital librarian at Trillium Health Partners in Mississauga, ON. I am interested in automation and programmatic solutions for electronic resources management; exploring the environmental impacts of libraries and library collections; and mentorship opportunities within librarianship. In my spare time, I love running, yoga, cycling, attending film festivals, and exploring Montréal and Québec, often bringing along my cats in their stroller!
