Meet the new STEM Librarian, Luesoni Kuck!

Hello! My name is Luesoni Kuck and I am the new STEM Librarian. I have a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Biology, and recently completed my MS/LIS from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. In my science career, I worked on fetal alcohol syndrome and neuroplasticity in zebrafish. In my Master’s thesis, my work studied the neural circuity of the katydid’s hearing system. Aside from my science career, I am passionate about how to use my expertise to support the STEM disciplines at Northeastern University. I am excited about making sure the STEM faculty and students are supported by the Northeastern University Library. You can email me at l.kuck@northeastern.edu.

Ways I can help you:

As the STEM Librarian, I am dedicated to helping faculty and students with their research inside and outside the classroom. Some ways I can help you include:

• Provide classroom instruction on information literacy such as literature review, database searching, and citation management.
• Create research guides and online tutorials to facilitate additional learning.
• Provide research lab support for faculty and students.
• Conduct individual and small group consultations for research support.
• Accept recommendations for purchases.

I am always willing to have an open dialogue, so feel free to contact me at l.kuck@northeastern.edu with any questions on how I can best serve your department.
