Bio
Burkely Hermann was served as Metadata Librarian at the National Security Archive beginning in March 2020, using his experience with arrangement, indexing, electronic databases, cataloging, metadata creation, and knowledge of history on a daily basis, until he was unfortunately laid off in April 2025. In December 2019, he completed his Master of Library and Information Science, specializing in Archives and Digital Curation, at University of Maryland. A few years earlier, in May 2016, he received a Bachelor of Arts, with a major in Political Science and a minor in History, from St. Mary's College of Maryland. He previously interned at the National Archives II facility in College Park and worked at the Maryland State Archives, Digital Curation and Innovation Center (now Center for Archival Futures), and the Enoch Pratt Free Library. He is also a member of the Society of American Archivists. In his free time, he researches his family genealogy, serves as a judge for National History Day, which he participated in for several years, and keeps up with changes in the library and archives fields. He currently runs seven WordPress blogs, either reviewing archives and libraries in pop culture, or others about his family history.
