See how three institutions use their digital collections to expand access, engagement and community connection…
Join Palos Verdes Library District, St. Louis County Library and Denver Public Library for a free webinar on building digital collections your community will actually use. Each library has taken a different path to managing and showing it’s digital collection and sharing local history, genealogy and archival collections, from a small team managing archives solo, to a genealogy resource helping people track down family records, to a collection of over a million digital items.
They’ll share what worked, what surprised them and what they’d tell other libraries just starting out. Whether you’re beginning to think about digital collections or looking to get more value from what you already have, you’ll leave with practical ideas to bring back to your own library.
