Assistant Director for Digital Scholarship
University of Pennsylvania Libraries
Laurie Allen leads the Digital Scholarship Group at the University of Pennsylvania Libraries. The Digital Scholarship group collaborates to create new forms of scholarship to support campus-wide open access publishing, data curation & management, digital humanities, and mapping and geospatial data efforts. A native Philadelphia, she also serves as Research Director for Monument Lab, a public art and civic research project in Philadelphia co-produced with Mural Arts Philadelphia. In late 2016, Allen and colleagues in the Penn Libraries helped start Data Refuge by teaming up with the Penn Program in Environmental Humanities in an effort to help protect copies of federal environmental and climate data.
