Jocelyn Godolphin Named the 2013 Recipient of the CRKN Ron MacDonald Distinguished Service Award

he Canadian Research Knowledge Network (CRKN) is pleased to announce Jocelyn Godolphin as the recipient of the Ron MacDonald Distinguished Service Award for 2013. The award will be presented on October 2, 2013 in Toronto, Ontario as part of CRKN's Annual General Meeting. The award celebrates Jocelyn Godolphin for her demonstrated vision, leadership, and commitment to advance the goals and the knowledge infrastructure for the benefit of CRKN members. Prior to her retirement in 2013, Jocelyn was Associate University Librarian for Collection Services at Concordia University, with overall responsibility for collection development and management. During nearly a decade in this role, she directed the reorganization of collection services as a response to the unprecedented changes in scholarly publishing. She led the launch of Spectrum, Concordia's institutional research repository, and was a member of the campus working group, whose initiative ensured the Senate Resolution in April 2010 that made Concordia University the first Canadian university to adopt an institution-wide 'green' Open Access mandate.
