Hi,
I've just joined the civic access list at the invitation of Tracey Lauriault. Tracey and I met at Carleton University almost 2 years ago while I was working in the GIS section at the library.
I'm currently still at the library on a full-time basis, working now not only with GIS information but also with numeric data. I've also begun a part-time and distance education Masters of Library and Information Studies where I hope to eventually work with tones of different types of data as a Librarian. At the slow pace that I'm going, I'll probably be done in the next 3 to 4 years.
I've been exposed to much "liberation" of data on an academic side of things, but hope that some of this data will be liberated to the general public. I have limited experience in liberating data, but I'll try my best to help out in any way that I can.
Cheers!
Joel
