[Sigkm-l] Annual ASIST Planning Meeting Recap

[Kelly A Green]

Does anyone know Laura Black? I came across mention of her in my online reading and found this 2003 news brief from Montana State U: http://www.montana.edu/commserv/csnews/nwview.php?article=689
Black's research includes processes and behaviors supporting collaborative practices and innovation and learning across organizational boundaries. She has studied (non) collaboration in settings of product development and governmental interagency work and is currently researching collaboration among university, nonprofit and private resources to cultivate start-up ventures and entrepreneurship. Her research will help start-up companies, new venture incubators and universities to recognize and act on opportunities to build collaborative environments in which innovation can thrive.
 
>From the article, she only had a one year appointment. Thus, the university is not a good point of contact.  This certainly looks like a researcher who could be a good resource on the topic of collaboration.
It is difficult to find those who are specificall researching collaboration.
