Hello, I'm Jamie Carlstone, a librarian from Chicago, Illinois

I am a metadata librarian at Northwestern University. I have a M.A. in early modern history and a coding bootcamp certificate. I enjoy bike rides, sewing, and hanging out with my dog, Studs.

I am interested in how I can use programming to enhance library records. Descriptions of some of those projects can be found in the Portfolio tab!
