Who Am I?

Librarian for Communication and Educational Technologies.

I'm the liaison librarian for Journalism and Speech. I teach research instruction classes in this and other areas, and work with instructional technologies to try to bring the library's teaching resources online.

What Can I Do For You?

  • Library Instruction for Journalism and Speech classes.

  • Research assistance by phone, e-mail, IM or in person

  • Training for your class or department on Zotero, EndNote, RSS and other technology topics

  • Collection development assistance for Journalism and Speech

Please contact me at jpuckett@gsu.edu or 404-413-2720.

I'm a GSU alum (BA in English) and got my master's in Library and Information Studies via Florida State's distance education program.
