- Resources for College Libraries Served as peer reviewer for the European History section of Resources for College Libraries (RCL). RCL is a major bibliographic source in building core collections for undergraduate libraries. This was a lengthy process, which involved reviewing the subject taxonomy itself, as well as the sources listed under individual headings, along with answering several specific questions from the RCL editor, recommending additional sources, and performing general quality control (duplicate entries, sources incorrectly classified, etc). My review was submitted as a seven page document. 2012
