Aðalheiður has held various positions of trust at the University of Iceland and elsewhere, e.g. head of the Department of Icelandic, board member for the University of Iceland Research Fund, the University of Iceland Centre for Medieval Studies, the Association of Icelandic Language Teachers and the Society of Folklorists (chair).

She sits on various editorial and consulting boards, e.g. for the journal New Norse Studies: A Journal on the Literature and Culture of Medieval Scandinavia.[3]
Research
Aðalheiður's main focuses in teaching and research are medieval Norse literature, legendary sagas, folktales, folk ballads and rímur (metrical romances), the history of dance and the history of magic. She has published books such as Úlfhams saga in 2001 and Strengleikar in 2006, as well as many academic papers. Her doctoral thesis, Úlfhams saga, discussed the metrical verses and the derived prose versions of the saga. The saga was adapted for the stage in Hafnarfjörður Theatre by the company Annað svið in 2004 and the opportunity was taken to record the rímur (metrical verses) and publish them on CD along with Aðalheiður's edition of the text, with explanatory notes.[4][5]
