In September Glen Robson started working for the IIIF Consortium as the IIIF Technical Coordinator giving training and assisting the community to implement IIIF. Before this he spent 13 years working at the National Library of Wales (NLW), latterly as the Head of Systems. Glen started working with the IIIF standard in 2013 and implemented the IIIF standard within the library on its Newspaper, Photograph, Archive, Map and Crowdsourcing Systems. He is the co-chair of the IIIF Newspaper Community group and has worked with Europeana and others looking at harvesting IIIF resources. Since starting the new role he has given a number of hands on IIIF workshops and assisted community members like the Library of Congress in implementing multispectral images in IIIF.
