Maureen McCreadie (Bucks County Community College)

Maureen McCreadie currently serves as Dean, Learning Resources at Bucks County Community College in Newtown, Pennsylvania, where she leads a collaborative team of faculty and staff members from the Library, Online Learning, Instructional Design, the Tutoring Center, Learning Technologies Media Services, Teaching & Learning with Technology, and the TLC (Technology Learning Center).

During her three decades in academic librarianship, her primary area of research and publication has been in pursuit of a theoretical understanding of access to information. Her investigation has been multidisciplinary and has sought to view the research questions from multiple perspectives. Her background as a faculty leader at her institution and her interest in labor issues are reflected in her publication history, which includes Accessing and Browsing Information and Communication, coauthored with Ronald E. Rice and Shan-Ju L. Chang, and published by the MIT Press in 2001. She earned her Ph.D in Communication & Information Studies from Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey in 1998.
