About
Before I started at OsloMet (formerly Hioa) in 2013, I had worked as a librarian for 25 years. Over the years, I worked in various academic and research libraries, primarily focusing on management, library development, teaching, and guidance. Currently, I teach BIB3500 Organizational Development, Management, and Marketing, as well as BIB1530 Communication and Learning. I supervise both bachelor's and master's theses. My research work is largely related to information practices, library guidance services, information literacy, and topics related to school libraries.
