Collective collections: The University of Liverpool's Digital Heritage Lab
The University of Liverpool's recently launched Digital Heritage Lab, powered by AM Quartex, is a centralised discovery platform to access digitised materials from across the institution's three heritage repositories, Special Collections & Archives, Victoria Gallery & Museum, and the Garstang Museum of Archaeology, many of which are now available online for the first time.
Speaking at the first AM Quartex Digital Collections Symposium, Laura Smith Brown, Head of Special Collections and Archives, and Olivia Thompson, Digital Heritage and Operations Manager, discuss their use of Quartex for a variety of University collections, including OCR tools to enable search of student newspapers and graduation lists, IIIF functionality for medieval manuscripts, and exhibition formats to spotlight the history of buildings around campus.
