My background

ConsultMU was founded in 2002 following my experience of some twenty years working across a wide range of publishing sectors, including educational (Pearson), trade (Dorling Kindersley, Random House), reference publishing (Helicon Publishing), professional (Building Research Establishment, The Stationery Office (TSO)) and magazine and newsletter publishers (KHL, Electric Word). My perspective has been widened by also working with software companies producing content management software (CSW Group, Abacus E-Media).

I am a Member of the British Computer Society (MBCS) and a former Member of the Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals (MCLIP).

I am a committee member of the UK Electronic Information Group (UKeiG) and I edit their journal, Elucidate (www.ukeig.org.uk/elucidate).

Other activities include:

  • Assessor for UK Dept of Environment “Partners in Innovation” research programme for construction industry (2000)
  • Data Publishers Association Annual Awards Judge 1998, 1999, 2000
