I’m Kristina Treadwell, an information scientist, entrepreneur, web developer, and unapologetic advocate for librarianship.

Long before search engines, social media algorithms, and artificial intelligence, librarians were solving one of humanity’s most important challenges: helping people find information. And they did it by devoting themselves to evaluating, organizing, and preserving all of that precious data.
That mission continues to shape the modern web more than most people realize.

I became a web developer at an early age because the internet and its infinite access to knowledge astounded me. I earned my Master of Library and Information Science because I wanted to better understand the systems behind knowledge itself. Over the years, that curiosity has influenced everything I’ve built, from software platforms and digital collections to websites, databases, browser extensions, WordPress plugins, accessibility initiatives, and every type of information retrieval system you can imagine.

InfoSciGeek.com is where I explore that fascinating intersection of information science, librarianship, technology, accessibility, archives, digital preservation, artificial intelligence, knowledge management, and the ever-evolving ways that people discover and use information.
Some articles will be practical. Some will be research-driven. Others will be deep dives into ideas that simply intrigue me.


At its core, this site is built around a belief that librarians and information professionals helped shape the digital world we live in today, and that their work remains more relevant than ever.
If you’ve ever searched for information, trusted a source, discovered a book, used a database, navigated a website, or asked an AI a question, you’ve benefited from ideas rooted in information science.

This website is my ongoing exploration of those ideas and the people behind them.
