Meghan is a science librarian based in Perkins Research Services.  She works with the Chemistry department and the Division of Environmental Sciences and Policy at the Nicholas School.  Her favorite part of the job is helping students gain the skills they need to effectively find information to answer their research questions.  Even though science is her specialty, working at Perkins Library gives her a chance to work across all disciplines

Meghan moved to Durham and Duke in November of last year.  Durham is a great place to be a Canadian expatriate, especially when it comes to hockey.  Go ‘Canes!
