Leticia Antunes Nogueira

About

I am the Head of the Resources and Digital Services (RD) section at the NTNU Library. The section has about 20 employees across all three campus cities and is responsible for:

Library's financial framework and literature budgets
Library procurement, contact with resource providers and vendors (publishers, agents etc.)
Registration and reporting of the university's academic production
Technical support for publishing and teaching
Catalogue and metadata work, data curation, collection management, and development
Library-specific software and hardware
Library-specific security work

Background

I have held various positions in research and higher education, which has given me broad experience in the sector. As a researcher, I have worked on everything from applying for funding, to publishing, reporting, and knowledge dissemination.

My academic interests concern economics of technology and innovation, political economy, and organization studies. I have published various types academic papers, and I have served as a book editor. In earlier research positions, I worked on how industrial sectors and individual organizations adapt to socio-technical changes, with a particular focus on the energy and waste sectors. I have also been responsible for an interdisciplinary course at the bachelor's level on 'sustainability in practice'.

Later, I found my place in the library world. I was a senior research librarian at Nord University in Bodø, where I worked on various library tasks, from the service desk to research support and course development. I started at the NTNU Library in November 2023, where I led Project Laibro: Artificial Intelligence, Real Library, before I started as Head of Section for Resources and Digital Services in December 2024. More recently, I have worked on the implications AI brings to academics, librarians and students, and the economic dynamics of academic publishing.
