Philip Schreur

Philip Schreur is currently the Deputy University Librarian at Stanford University. He earned a PhD from Stanford in Medieval music theory and an MLIS from the University of California, Berkeley.

He has overseen linked-data project development for the Stanford University Libraries (SUL), including the role of co-Principal Investigator for the Mellon-funded initiative called Linked Data for Production.

His initial areas of interest include the use of linked data as a mechanism for identity management across traditional resources and those within the digital library, the integration of linked data from disparate sources, and the transition of traditional technical services workflows to processes rooted in linked open data.

He is currently part of the core team planning the Stanford Libraries transition to open metadata in 2027.
