Katie Blocksidge

Katie Blocksidge's public record centers on academic librarianship, including creating research guides (LibGuides) for college courses across subjects like mathematics, chemistry, biology, and history, as well as studies on students' information literacy and research behavior. More recent work examines how students, particularly Generation Z, form beliefs about information and how remote teaching during the pandemic may have affected their research skills and confidence. This work is applied and practice-oriented, focused on supporting student learning and library services rather than technical computer science research.

Publication output was highest around 2017-2018 (driven largely by numerous library guide entries), dropped sharply from 2019 onward, and has remained sparse (0-4 items per year) since 2021.
