Round up!
Read more of "Link roundup April 11, 2014"Edited to incorporate suggestions from Wendy.
Wendy Gogel says says a few factors led to this proposal for a new service:
Preservation Services, Academic Technology Services, and Library Technology Services have gotten inquiries about online collection building for faculty, librarians and other staff.
We need to replace our aging online collection building tools: Virtual Collections and TED
We’ve been creating digital content for 15 years at Harvard, so now have a good foundation for combining and presenting collections in new ways. The new service would be called CURIOSity, and, as Wendy notes, it does not exist yet.
Thanks to everyone at PLA 2014 in Indianapolis for making the Awesome Box feel welcome. We learned some things about public libraries and got to share the Awesome Box with a lot of people.
