She first became interested in library science as a volunteer at Swansea Public Library in Massachusetts and ultimately left her position at University of Connecticut to move to Oregon, offering a comparison between the different cultures of UC, Yale, and OHSU in this interview. Major objectives and obstacles encountered by Dr. Ash during her time at OHSU are touched upon; more specifically, labor-management relations and unions at OHSU (and university campuses generally) are covered. In addition, the creation of the BICC (Biomedical Information Communication Center, OHSU's informatics program, and the grant-writing process are major topics of the interview, as is her long association with Library Director James Morgan. Other topics addressed include learning about computers while at library school at Columbia University, relations with other local institutions and the National Library of Medicine, sexism in the library profession, and sexual discrimination in the OHSU community. 000003214 540__ $$fCC BY-NC 000003214 542__ $$fIn Copyright - Educational Use Permitted 000003214 650__ $$aLibrary Science$$021484 000003214 650__ $$aComputational Biology$$031511 000003214 650__ $$aIntegrated Advanced Information Management Systems$$029162 000003214 650__ $$aLibraries$$021467 000003214 7102_ $$aOregon Health & Science University$$010958 000003214 720__ $$7Personal$$aAsh, Joan S.

They are the personal recollections and opinions of the individuals involved and, therefore, may contain offensive language, ideas or negative stereotypes reflecting the culture or language of a person, period or place. Oral histories should not serve as the sole source of information about an institution or particular historical events. These narratives should in no way be interpreted as the official history of Oregon Health & Science University, nor do they necessarily represent the views of the institution. 000003214 905__ $$a/rest/prod/rn/30/11/63/rn3011631 000003214 909CO $$ooai:digitalcollections.ohsu.edu:3214$$poral-history-program 000003214 980__ $$aOral History Collection
