Helen
Hello – I’m Helen, and I’m very pleased to introduce myself as SNIP’s Information Worker.
My
background is in Library and Information work – I worked at the National
Library of Scotland for 18 years before taking a year out to travel, and started
working for SNIP in 2002. I enjoy helping people with enquiries and
research. I carry out a wide range of work
at SNIP - from producing the monthly newsletter and this website to paying the
bills! I work to develop SNIP’s information services and
resources further, and produce factsheets and leaflets. I also
have a lot of experience in doing research online and am always happy to offer guidance and support for members who are interested in using the
internet to do their own research. If
you would like some help with the internet, from basics like where to begin
looking for information to help with undertaking more
One
thing which I have in common with my colleagues at SNIP is having a family
member with additional support needs, so I am very aware of the sort of issues that
families can sometimes face.
