Digital collections are popular and necessary. Information previously only accessible to the few, is now available with limited barriers or none. This program will cover how to think about, describe, and finally bring your digital collection to the world. Learn how to create and refine a Metadata Application Profile (MAP) to evaluate your collection and build your metadata workflow. Additionally, the State of Illinois Library will present on the Illinois Digital Archives and the process of publishing your digital collection to the internet.

Presenters: Jill Walker, Cataloging Librarian for Wheaton College; State of Illinois Library.
