Danny Kingsley

Dr Danny Kingsley is Associate Librarian, Content and Digital Library Strategy at Flinders University, having worked as a Scholarly Communication Consultant on her return to Australia. Her research as a Visiting Fellow at the Australian National Centre for the Public Awareness of Science has centred on scholarly communication with interests in the academic reward structure, scholarly infrastructure and open access advocacy. Between 2015-2019, Danny worked as the Deputy Director of Cambridge University Libraries (Scholarly Communication & Research Services). Before moving to the UK she established the Australasian Open Access Strategy Group (now Open Access Australasia). This followed on from working for four years as the Manager of Scholarly Communication at the Australian National University, a natural extension of her 2008 PhD into the range of ways different disciplines engage with open access. She has worked as a science communicator for 15 years, including two years with ABC Science Online as a journalist for News in Science.
