About Me:
I am an assistant-researcher at the Medical library of the Université libre de Bruxelles (ULB) since 2007. I hold a BA in Library and Documentation Sciences from Haute Ecole Namuroise Catholique (Belgium), a MA in Information and Communication Sciences and Technologies and a PhD in Information and Communication from ULB.
My doctoral research explores the process of collaborative tagging and its resulting folksonomies. The aim of doctoral research was to measure to what extent the collaborative tagging process contributes to the description of healthcare resources on the Internet. My principal research interests concern Web 2.0, user-generated content, information management but also bibliometric indicators.
