Nominees
| Name | Organization | Title/Role | Personal Statement |
|---|---|---|---|
| Aaron Choate | University of Texas at Austin | Interim Assistant Director for Technology Innovation & Strategy | |
| Evviva Weinraub | Northwestern University | Associate University Librarian (AUL) for Digital Strategies | I’m the AUL for Digital Strategies at Northwestern University in Evanston, IL. I have worked for the last 5 years I have led teams working on Fedora based digital asset management systems and my team at Northwestern has been doing so for over a decade. I am very interested in joining the Fedora Steering Group to continue the work I’ve done on the Leadership team, to stay tied directly to the future and growth of Fedora, and work to find ways to increase international adoption and contribution to the Fedora community. |
| Steve Marks | University of Toronto | Digital Preservation Librarian | I'm the Digital Preservation Librarian at the University of Toronto Libraries. We maintain a large Islandora instance which supports primarily digital scholarship projects, and we are in the process of setting up a Fedora 4 environment to test with Avalon and Hydra applications. As part of the Steering Committee, I would like to see Fedora develop to the point where it can truly function as core digital asset management infrastructure in a rich environment of applications. To this end, I would like to see Fedora continue to support the application stacks we know and love, while not being inextricably bound to the destiny of any one of them. |
| Tom Cramer | Stanford University | Assistant University Librarian & Director for Digital LIbrary Systems & Services |
