I am Orly Simon, a wiki-librarian in soul.
I'm a Director of User Services at The National Library of Israel and a lecturer at The David Yellin College of Education in Jerusalem.
I teach the course titled: "Digital Libraries: Wikipedia, Libraries & Librarians" at the Library and Information Science Master degree program. The course encourages librarians to take a pro-active role in the partnership between libraries and Wikimedia initiatives.
On 2018 I completed the course "Wikipedia & Libraries: Better Together" (OCLC & Wikimedia Foundation).
I'm a global ambassador of #1Lib1ref and led the campaign in Israel in 2018&2019.
I'm a member of the Wikipedia & Libraries User Group steering committee since 2019.
Presentations I gave on GLAM Conference 2018:
