- Profile
-
I joined the Information School as a Librarianship student in 2017. Then in 2018 I was awarded a scholarship to research the web archiving needs of activist archivists in the UK in response to the increasingly digital nature of social movements.
I am on the organising group of the Sheffield Feminist Archive who document the lives and experiences of self-identifying women in the Sheffield area.
I am also a trustee of the Society for Cooperation in Russian and Soviet Studies, a library, archive, and cultural hub in London where I previously volunteered as the art librarian.
