About me

I am Yoo Young Lee, Web and Digital Initiatives Librarian at the University of Ottawa Library in Canada and this is my professional blog to write about topics I am interested in and subjects I am learning.

I am a continuous learner to improve my skills and acquire new knowledge to make knowledge, data and tools open and easily accessible. Currently, I collaborate with my colleagues on web archiving, digital preservation, scholarly communications, and application development.

Prior to uOttawa Library, I started my librarian career at Indiana University - Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) as a Digital User Experience Librarian and IT Analyst Developer where I learned “openness” in every aspect.
