Senior🎓
Top SchoolBecky Yoose is the founder of LDH Consulting Services and a library data privacy consultant with 13 years of experience translating metadata, systems, and privacy principles into practical solutions for academic and public libraries. Based in Portland, she combines hands-on systems work—from bibliographic and discovery platforms to applications management—with teaching experience as a lecturer at the University of Washington and UW–Madison iSchool. Her career spans roles that blend technical stewardship and user-centered services, including managing library applications for Seattle Public Library and developing discovery systems at Grinnell College. Known for “cat herding,” she excels at coordinating cross-functional teams and clarifying complex privacy trade-offs for nontechnical stakeholders. Unexpectedly, her practice marries playful strategic ambition with rigorous metadata governance, helping institutions operationalize privacy without sacrificing discoverability.
