Having worked with various libraries, archives, and oral history collections across the country, Carly returned to McMaster University in 2016 as an emerging museum professional pursuing her doctorate in the Department of History with the support of the LR Wilson Institute for Canadian History.
Continuing to interrogate public history methods in her academic work, her comparative dissertation about human rights museum seeks to determine if museum workers, broadly defined, can do human rights work. Her case studies are the Canadian Museum for Human Rights in Winnipeg, Manitoba, the International Slavery Museum in Liverpool, England, and the National Center of Civil and Human Rights in Atlanta, Georgia.
She is also an editor for <a href="http://activehistory.ca"> Active History</a>.
