From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki




Lindsay Cronk is an American librarian and the first President of the American Library Association'’s Core Division[1][2]. She currently serves as Assistant Dean for Scholarly Resources and Curation at the University of Rochester's River Campus Libraries[3]. She was recognized as a Library Journal Mover & Shaker in 2017.[4]

As an ALA Councilor-at-Large, Cronk was a co-author and sponsor of ALA's adopted resolution to condemn white supremacy and fascism as antithetical to library work[5][6][7], and called for formal and restorative action to address the damaging effects of neutrality rhetoric in present and past library practices[8]. It was cited as "laudable" by Colin Kaepernick[9] and provoked criticism from conservative bloggers.[10]

In her work with the NorthEast Research Libraries consortium (NERL), Cronk co-chaired negotiations with Elsevier[11] that resulted in a new transformative agreement model which expands retroactive Open Access, nicknamed "the Backflip[12]." Cronk was one of the team that developed NERL's negotiating model, emphasizing a project-based and values-oriented approach[13][14][15].
