Dear Colleagues,

We are delighted to announce the appointment of Lily Pregill as the Head of Information Systems and Institutional Metadata at the Getty Research Institute (GRI) beginning May 8, 2017.

Lily has worked as Coordinator and Systems Manager with the New York Art Resources Consortium since 2007 and as Technology and Collections Management Consultant with the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA). With more than ten years of experience working with academic, special, and art museum libraries, Lily’s areas of expertise include collection management systems,                management and dissemination of digital images, and descriptive metadata for art, architecture, and material culture. Her work has focused on helping institutions with metadata, technology, workflows, strategic planning, and collaborative initiatives.  Projects that Lily has worked on include PHAROS: The International Consortium of Photo Archives; MoMA’s Exhibition History; and OCLC’s Web Archiving Metadata Working Group.  She is an active member of the Art Libraries Society of North America (ARLIS/NA), serving on the association’s Strategic Planning Committee, Nominating Committee, and Diversity Task Force. Lily holds a bachelor of arts degree in English from Suffolk University in Boston and a master’s degree in Library and Information Science from Rutgers University.

At the GRI, Lily will work closely with staff from across the institute and will play a key role in our digital art history projects and “big data” initiatives.  She will manage and coordinate our core information systems and software development and will work to integrate and enhance our descriptive metadata, vocabulary tools, and research databases. While doing all of this, Lily will also contribute to Getty-wide digital initiatives, and will continue to play a leadership role in the national and international art information communities.

Lily will become an important member of the team that is leading the GRI’s many and varied digital initiatives, while continuing to share the results of our work with the international art history and art library communities.
