Welcoming a New Chef in the Kitchen: Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe

I’m very happy to announce the latest “Chef” to join our roster of bloggers, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Professor/Coordinator for Information Literacy Services and Instruction in the University Library and affiliate faculty in the School of Information Sciences, Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe. If you’ve been following the conversation around scholarly communications for the last few years, then you probably already know Lisa (or have read her work), as she’s become an increasingly important voice. I’m delighted that Lisa has agreed to join us in The Kitchen, her first post (other than an earlier guest post) can be found here.
