Publication Ideas for Librarian 1 (Science & Engineering Liaison) -- Academic

Hi all, good day.

First, for context... I have been in academic libraries for 3 years in the reference and instruction department. I have produced some webinars about IP, casual database research, and plagiarism. I have a presentation coming up which I will loosely discuss student research in databases and beyond which comes from my main job duty of instruction. Also, I've coauthored a couple of literature reviews; I want to experience more grant writing and programming proposals.

That being said, I want to launch into more of my personal passions within academic research with the goal of publishing a peer reviewed article. Specifically, I am only really passionate about LIS. I'm totally lost on where to go, an area wherein I can gather data as well as case studies. Most of LIS research is geared towards AI literacy and user service; however, I would like to focus more on the expansion of the academic library's footprint in terms of access, along with ideas of copyright as it pertains to libraries (US code title 17, section 108).

Any advice or discussion is greatly appreciated.
