The point where data and health libraries intersect is constantly evolving, and entwined with it is the future of those of us who act as it’s caretaker. In this invited talk, the presenter will discuss their experience over the last four years of taking on a newly created role at a new (to them) university as a single point of service for GIS & Data Visualization support and how they got there. Focus will be placed on development work, research, instruction, service, early career librarianship, and the importance of community.
