The 2018 Upper Midwest Digital Collections Conference (#UMDCC18) will be held on November 8-9th at St. Catherine University campus, St. Paul, Minnesota. The UMDCC provides opportunities for digital collections creators and curators in the region and beyond to network, share best practices, participate in hands-on workshops, and learn from leaders in digital cultural heritage.
Using Omeka to create a state-wide digital repository NEKLS used a (lightly) customized version of Omeka to create the Recollections:KS site. In this session, we'll discuss the process of choosing this platform, getting it customized and set up and how we "sold" the project to other libraries around the state of KS. We'll also talk about our ongoing efforts to become a DPLA Content Hub.
DLSD/Minitex DPLA Onboarding: It's a Snap! Please join us as we discuss the recent Digital Library of South Dakota (DLSD) and Minitex collaboration that facilitated DPLA onboarding. An introduction will be given to the Digital Library of South Dakota, and a brief discussion about DLSD collections and features will be presented.
