Aria Henderson-Ojo, MLIS, BA

Reading & Lifestyle Apps Editor

10 years in library and editorial

About Aria Henderson-Ojo

Aria Henderson-Ojo is the reading and lifestyle apps editor at whichapp.report. They write the reading-tracker, language-learning, and podcast-app decision trees, and own the publication’s broader lifestyle-app coverage outside the productivity, finance, and health verticals.

After completing both their BA in Library Science (2014) and MLIS (2016) at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill — UNC’s School of Information and Library Science is one of three nationally accredited programs in the country — Aria moved to New York City for a reference-librarian position at Brooklyn Public Library’s Central Branch. They spent five years there (2016-2021) on the reference desk, fielding the kind of “what should I read next?” and “how do I learn Spanish?” questions that animate the reading-tracker and language-app categories.

They left BPL in 2021, spent two years at a small reading-tracking startup (which they declined to name in this bio because the company has since been acquired and they have no current relationship with the acquirer), and then joined whichapp.report in October 2025. Their editorial thesis is that the reading-tracker and language-app categories are particularly badly served by listicle reviews — both categories require the user to commit to a specific data model (book list vs. graph; vocabulary drill vs. comprehensible input) before the app’s features become legible — and that the decision-tree format is uniquely well suited to capturing those commitments.

Credentials in detail

Editorial focus

Aria writes the reading-tracker, language-learning, podcast, and broader lifestyle-app decision trees. They own the publication’s coverage of library-systems integration (Libby and similar) and the comprehensible-input vs. drill-based language-app divide. They do not accept contract or consulting work from any app developer covered on this site.

Conflicts of interest

Aria holds no equity in any app developer reviewed here. They held a small amount of restricted stock at the unnamed reading-tracking startup (2021-2023) which they sold during the post-acquisition liquidity window prior to joining the publication. They maintain a personal Goodreads account that predates their editorial work but accept no compensation from Amazon (Goodreads’ parent company) or any other developer covered here.
