About Me:

I have been teaching subjects of information storage and retrieval, information science, information systems, knowledge organization, research methodology and digital libraries since 2011. My research interest includes information seeking behaviour, cognitive and social issues of information process and digital technology. I have published a considerable number of articles in addition to chapters in books and research papers in international journals. I am interested in open access movement as a significant tool for narrowing the digital divide (through knowledge sharing) between the third world countries and the developed countries which continue to widen between the have and have-nots. Therefore, I am on the editorial board of Arab Initiatives of Open Access Blog. Moreover, I'm paying much attention to the use and utilization of content management systems for instance Microsoft CMS as well as open source content management systems such as Greenstone, Fedora, Eprints and Dspace.
