Nathan Sonnenschein
Need to breathe new life into your library's collection of art-related books? Learn some practical tips
gained from one librarian's recent weeding project at a small academic library. This session will offer
practical advice to librarians who are not art specialists, but still have a responsibility for maintaining
vibrant, up-to-date art-related collections for public or academic communities.

Nathan Sonnenschein (he/him) is the User Services & Experience Librarian at Montana State University
Billings. He applies UX research and design to the experiences of library users, administers the library’s
digital systems, and serves as the subject liaison for the university’s Art, Business, Music, and Psychology
programs. Nathan earned an MSLIS from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and undergraduate
degrees from the University of Wyoming and Central Wyoming College.
