I am the director of WebJunction, the learning program of OCLC Research. I've worked at OCLC since 2007.



Merrilee Proffitt[edit]

I am Merrilee on English Language Wikipedia (and elsewhere). I'm interested in bringing Wikipedia and libraries more closely together. On this project I work as a subject matter expert and will work closely with both the WebJunction team and with our Wikipedian in Residence.

Previously, I worked on bringing authority data to Wikipedia and Wikidata in our VIAFbot project.

I'm on the staff of WebJunction, the learning program of OCLC Research. I've spent my career working on a wide range of projects in libraries, archives, and museums.

I am the Wikipedian-in-Residence (WIR) with the OCLC for Wikipedia + Libraries: Better Together. As a Wikipedia subject matter expert, I will lend my expertise on Wikipedia editing and critical engagement with wiki culture to the team. For this project, I use the username Monikasj. My volunteer account is Shameran81. I'm also a communication and media studies scholar.

As the WIR, I look forward to connecting libraries and Wikipedia. Both will be better, together!
