Role
I am Programme Manager in the Information Environment Team, which is a part of the Innovation Group, JISC Executive. I have overseen several areas of work including:
- rapid innovation (#jiscRI)
- enhancing library management systems (#jiscLMS)
- embedding deposit solutions into research repositories (#jiscDEPO)
- exposing content as linkeddata (#jiscEXPO)
- several other strategic landscape studies
I am currently tasked with work around identifiers and how Universities use and understand the value of the web addresses they are creating (e.g. the ‘why’ and ‘how’ of everything after the 'http://...'). I also support colleagues in other cross-cutting innovation work including: Open Education Resources (#OER) and Preservation.
