As many of you may have heard the Library has implemented the Omeka S platform for the creation of online resources. This platform is intended to be available not only for Library projects but for all UC staff and students.

From the ‘homepage’ instructions are provided for the creation of a site. The homepage shows past digital sites, which we are hoping to ‘re-create’ in Omeka S in the future, it also highlights our first site created in Omeka S, the University of Canterbury Library Provenance project. This project is very much a work in progress and all feedback is welcome to Damian.

Other projects in the pipeline are Terri Elder’s, Canterbury College Heritage Collection project. Barbara Garrie’s, Artists’ Books project, and another one from Damian on the Lubeck Bible.

If any students or staff are interested in the creation of an online resource please do direct them to the homepage to make a request to Library Digital Services who manage the site.

Cheers Damian
