About
Steve Silberstein co-founded Innovative Interfaces in 1978 and served as its first President. The company develops automated systems for libraries and now includes as its customers more than 1500 library systems around the world.
Originally employed as a computer programmer in the University of California at Berkeley’s library, Silberstein was responsible for the library’s automation program, a project that began in the early 1970s with the eventual goal of replacing the card catalog with a computerized system.
Silberstein serves as the Chair of the Board of the $3.1 billion Marin County Employees' Pension Fund and National Popular Vote, an organization whose goal is to reform the Electoral College so that it elects as the President of the United States the person who got the most popular votes in all 50 states (and the District of Columbia).
He holds a BA in economics and MLS from UC Berkeley and a master's degree in econometrics from the University of Stockholm in Sweden.
