ABOUT ANDERS GRIFFEN
As a professional librarian and archivist building on a background in music, my professional experience has brought me to all areas of libraries and archives including administration, cataloging and technical services, archival processing, reference and instruction, discovery and access services, as well as consultation. I am interested in new challenges and broadening the subjects I research and support. Meanwhile, I remain active as a performing musician and pursue research interests in media and cultural studies, new technologies, music history, and issues of authenticity.
