Emily Reynolds

Emily received a Master of Science in Information from the University of Michigan School of Information, where she specialized in archives and digital preservation.

While in school, Emily worked on a map digitization project at the University of Michigan’s Clark Library, as well as contributing to digital curation research at the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR). Whether working with digitized maps or social science research data, she is interested in the new forms of reuse and research made possible by digitization and digital access.

Emily decided to apply for the NDSR program following her experience as a Junior Fellow with NDIIPP. She felt that the program would allow her to continue her education through engagement with the professional community, as well as give her more experience in managing a large-scale digitization initiative.  

As the NDSR resident at the World Bank Group Archives, Emily is overseeing daily digitization activity as well as assisting in the launch of an Access to Memory (AtoM) site to hold archival finding aids and digitized materials.
