Biography
I work as an information specialist at the university library, with the focus on collaboration with interest groups and partners and the development of library services and education.
I also have a PhD in information studies, and I have previously worked as a university lecturer and researcher. My research interests include misinformation as part of people's everyday life, equitable and sustainable access to information, and ways to enhance information transfer between people. Most of my research is conducted in the context of immigration and youth.
