I edit and publish a monthly, electronic newsletter called Tales from the Terminal Room. Other publications include Search Strategies for the Internet. I am an Honorary Fellow of CILIP: The Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals, an active member of the UK eInformation Group (UKeiG), a member of the City Information Group and a member of the Association of Independent Information Professionals (AIIP) In 2002 I received the Information World Review Information Professional of the Year award.
