My research interests lie mainly in the fields of eighteenth-century and Romantic-period literature and print culture, in particular Jane Austen and the history of reading, although I also work on Mary Russell Mitford and Margaret Oliphant. In addition, I have wide-ranging interests in contemporary reading practices and eighteenth- and nineteenth-century library history. I have been a member of three AHRC research networks, the Digital Reading Network (http://www.digitalreadingnetwork.com/), the Community Libraries:Connecting Readers in the Atlantic World, c.1650-c.1850 Network (http://communitylibraries.net/), and the Institutions of Literature 1700-1900 Network (http://institutionsofliterature.net/). I am a member of the Royal Society of Edinburgh's network: The 1820s: Innovation and Diffusion. I also sit on the Management Board of the Reading Experience Database, 1450-1945 (http://www.open.ac.uk/Arts/reading/), and I was previously one of the Associate Editors of the Year's Work in English Studies.
I am the Principal Investigator of the £1million AHRC-funded 'Books and Borrowing: An Analysis of Scottish Borrowers' Registers, 1750-1830' project. https://borrowing.stir.ac.uk
