The Job I Do
I am member of the UKOLN ISC's Executive.
In my role as UK Web Focus, I have interests in identifying ways of using innovative
Web developments to support institutional activities. I am also has responsibilities
for managing the ISC's communications activities.
I have been the chair or co-chair of the organising committee for the Institutional Web Management Workshop series), an event that I launched in 1997 and that continues to support the development of the institutional Web management community of practice.
I have long-standing interests in the preservation of Web resources and am continuing work in this area, which will include the preservation of content and services hosted in the Cloud.
During 2010/11 I ran the Evidence, Impact, Metrics activity, which developed approaches for the systematic quantitative evidence-gathering approaches that could help identify and shape the impact of online services. I continued to be involved in such evidence-gathering approaches, in particular as part of the joint UKOLN/CETIS JISC Observatory work. This work aims to identify early technology trends in order to ensure that JISC and the JISC Community can make appropriate plans for managing the implications of technological developments.
