Nadine Desrochers

Nadine Desrochers is an assistant professor at the Université de Montréal’s school of library and information studies (EBSI). She holds a Ph.D. in French Literature from the University of Ottawa and an MLIS from Western University. Her research examines the paratext and perceptions surrounding cultural products, both in print and online, as well as the information-seeking and information-sharing habits of creators. In so doing, she builds bridges with her humanities background, offering an interdisciplinary outlook into the role of libraries and other information providers as cultural agents. Her paper entitled “Private Practice, Public Gratitude: Following the Traces of Information Behaviours in Acknowledgement Paratext,” co-written with Jen Pecoskie (Wayne State University), won the Overall Best Paper award at the annual conference of the Canadian Association for Information Science (2012). Nadine Desrochers is also a theatre translator; her translations have been read or produced in Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver, and New York.
