Kelly Wooten
Research Services and Collection Development Librarian, Sallie Bingham Center
About
I am the Research Services and Collection Development Librarian for the Sallie Bingham Center for Women’s History and Culture in the Rubenstein Rare Book and Manuscript Library. I provide reference and instruction for women’s and LGBTQ history; gender, sexuality, and feminist studies; and other interdisciplinary areas using our rich collections of primary sources. I also plan a wide variety of public programming to highlight our women’s history collections at the Bingham Center. My areas of specialization include zines, book arts, and contemporary feminist movements.
Background
Before joining the staff at Duke in 2006, I was the Public Relations and Annual Giving Coordinator for UNC’s Health Science Library. I received both my BA in Women’s Studies and English Literature and my MSLS from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I am co-editor of Make Your Own History: Documenting Feminist and Queer Activism in the 21st Century (Litwin Books, 2012).
