As the First Year Engagement librarian at the Foley Center Library, Anthony provides library and information literacy instruction to Gonzaga's students, with a focus on freshmen. He is fascinated by the Information Age tensions between security and privacy, and information and disinformation, and by the way technology is changing our world for the better and the not-so-better. He sees information literacy as a crucial mindset for helping students navigate our increasingly partisan world with savvy, grace, and compassion.
