Rivosecchi Melissa
With over 5 years experience as an academic librarian, and two and half years as a training and implementation specialist, my goal is to always help others find an answer to their question or help find solutions to the problems they may be encountering. I have a passion for research, learning and instruction, educational technology, and continuously work on developing my skills in these areas.
I have a Master's in Library and Information Studies (2015 - specialization librarianship) from McGill University and I recently completed the Graduate Diploma in Instructional Technology (2021) program at Concordia University. I started my librarianship career at Concordia Library where I worked as a Business Librarian for three years. I also worked at McGill Library as a Business and Geospatial Data Services Librarian, and as a training specialist at OCLC Canada providing support to the Quebec University Libraries implementation of the shared library catalogue project. I have returned back to Concordia as a Teaching & Research Librarian for social sciences. In particular, I will be providing library instruction and research support to the department of Education.
I am looking for new ways to incorporate educational technology practices in my own instruction and look forward to attending this conference!
