Ryan Lieu

Current Role at Stanford

I manage a team of library specialists who assess, repair, rehouse, and prepare physical collection items for use by researchers as well as for rebinding at a commercial bindery. I also monitor environmental conditions in collection areas, administer an integrated pest management program, provide library preservation training, and maintain the collection emergency response plan for Stanford University Libraries.

Beyond Stanford, I collaborate with preservation professionals and informatics specialists around the world to assess practical concerns regarding standards and technology and publish research aimed at establishing shared methodologies for the creation of preservation data and metadata in libraries and museums.
