Librarian Highlight

Kathy Wolcott
Acquisitions Librarian/Manager
Mathematical Reviews® (MR)

On her time at Mathematical Reviews®:
Changes in the scholarly publishing environment are creating exciting challenges and opportunities that make efficient organization and identification of materials increasingly important. I am grateful to be a part of the MathSciNet® team and to contribute to such an integral resource in mathematics research.

At MR, Kathy helps identify new publications in mathematics and works closely with a wide variety of publishers on issues related to the delivery and processing of materials. She also communicates with researchers who are using MathSciNet®, which she finds especially rewarding.

On her career as an academic librarian:
It was exciting to learn about new research projects and to help researchers find information.

As an academic librarian, Kathy's favorite moments involved working closely with faculty and students to identify resources needed in research and teaching activities. Kathy also taught information resource sessions, helped researchers manage bibliographic and other data, and created current awareness tools.

Please volunteer to be highlighted here, or write to us to recognize a math librarian you admire. For more information, contact the AMS Web Editor.
