My most recent position was as a scholarly communication librarian at California State University, Sacramento. Earlier in my career I was a public and school librarian where I had the opportunity to be a Bookmobile librarian in San Francisco, CA and a librarian at an international school in Germany.\u00a0 I have also worked in community clinics focused on HIV prevention, the LGBTQIA+ community, and reproductive health care. I am active in MLA and am serving as the immediate past chair of the Social Justice and Health Disparities caucus.<\/p>\n<p>When not working I like to spend time with friends, printmaking, making crafts, baking, and gardening.\u00a0 I enjoy being in the Sacramento sunshine. My yard has a persimmon tree, pomegranate tree, passionflower vine, grape vines, apple tree, cherry tree, plum tree, grapefruit tree, mandarin tree, lemon tree, peach tree, kumquat tree, and blueberry bushes.\u00a0 I\u2019ve been learning a lot about canning recently!<\/p>\n<p>My email is <a href=\"mailto:ddickman@uw.edu\">ddickman@uw.edu<\/a>.
