Staff Directory: JoLinda Thompson

I joined the Himmelfarb Library staff in 1995 after serving as a reference librarian at Eastern Virginia Medical School and Merck Pharmaceuticals. At Himmelfarb, I was formerly Access Services Librarian, and have served as Systems Librarian since 2000, administering the library services platform (Alma) and library catalog (Health Information @ Himmelfarb), as well as supporting electronic resources management and collections analytics. I currently serve on the library's Assessment Committee, Staff Development Committee, and Web Services Committee.

My publications include articles on health sciences literature discovery, and Implementing Web Scale Discovery Services: A Practical Guide.

I enjoy gardening, reading, bird watching and following Arsenal Football Club (COYG!), and share a home with my husband, Rob, and our two cats, Zelda and Marigold.
