We are thrilled to announce the appointment of Tiago Lubiana as the new Wikimedian-in-Residence (WiR) at the Biodiversity Heritage Library (BHL)! This crucial role, shaped by community-driven recommendations from the Unifying Biodiversity Knowledge to Support Life on a Sustainable Planet white paper, is aimed at advancing BHL’s mission to make biodiversity data more accessible, actionable, and impactful for a sustainable future. As BHL’s new Wikimedian-in-Residence, Tiago will expand BHL’s data presence within Wikimedia platforms, convert legacy data to structured data on Structured Data on Commons for BHL’s vast image collection, and provide training to the broader biodiversity wiki community. His expertise in open science, data modeling, and the semantic web will help connect BHL’s data to the growing biodiversity knowledge graph, fostering collaboration and ensuring our information is accessible, interoperable, and integrated into the emerging semantic web ecosystem.
