Washington Rural Heritage: Digital Library of the Week
From the desk of Evan Robb
The American Library Association recently named Washington Rural Heritage its Digital Library of the Week. Read what ALA had to say about the collection at their I Love Libraries advocacy site. Congratulations to the 60+ cultural institutions (including 21 small, public libraries throughout Washington) participating in the initiative to date.
Seven Washington libraries are currently hard at work on LSTA-funded digitization projects for 2010-2011, and many WRH participants continue to build their digital collections on a non-grant-funded basis. Keep an eye out for two new collections, comprising more than 1,200 individually cataloged items, which will be published in coming weeks!
You can skim through a sampling of this diverse collection below, or visit the site directly at: www.washingtonruralheritage.org.
