Danette Pachtner is a public services and collection development librarian working in the Duke University Libraries. She is based in Lilly Library on Duke's East Campus, where first-year students are the primary users. As someone housed in a branch library, she participates in access and delivery services, tries to troubleshoot technical services issues, and greatly enjoys the array of activities this all feeds into. She is a member of the Ivy Plus Libraries Confederation Streaming Video Affinity Group. She serves on the screening committee for the Full Frame Documentary Film Festival. She holds an MLIS from the University of California at Los Angeles. Danette cherishes her collaboration and partnership with Winifred Metz, her colleague from down Tobacco Road.
At UNC, I lead a team of public service professionals devoted to student and faculty success. As Head of the Media & Design Center for the University Libraries, much of my work focuses on our digital literacies program engaged with multimodal communication, media design and pedagogical support. I also curate the research-level Film & Media collection; consulting on media production, analysis & consumption, leveraging the use of film, television, and new media for instruction and research. I am passionate about visual & media literacies and believe digital storytelling and visual narrative to be vital in making all voices heard. I currently serve on both UNC’s Global Cinema Advisory Board and the Chancellor’s Advisory Board.
Off campus, I am on the Programming Team for the Full Frame Documentary Film Festival and serve on various National Boards related to film and media.
The through line in all my work centers on storytelling and helping people effectively communicate across modalities.
