a. Robin Chandler named Director of Built Content

Robin Chandler, who has been managing the Online Archive of California at the CDL since May 2000, was recently named the Director of Built Content.

She will be responsible for the development, maintenance, technical integrity, service readiness, and long-term sustainability of the CDL’s publicly accessible online collections.  In addition, she will ensure that the CDL’s built collections are developed in light of campus needs, but also in light of major opportunities for technical, service, business, and scholarly innovation.

Projects Robin will be working on include the Online Archive of California (OAC), the Image Demonstrator project, and the American West project.  She will also be overseeing Adrian Turner’s work on the LSTA Local History Digital Resources project and the digital object framework.

Congratulations, Robin!
