Records from TDL’s Summer 2023 DPLA Harvest are now available via TxHUB and the Digital Public Library of America site. This harvest includes collections from a new Texas Digital Library’s DPLA metadata aggregation service user: Texas Woman’s University!
Institutions who participate in our DPLA Aggregation Service through TxHub share their metadata records with the Digital Public Library of America (DPLA). Every three months, those records are updated in DPLA in our quarterly harvest. TDL’s aggregation service is part of the TxHub partnership with the Portal to Texas History. This quarter, TDL members shared more 93,000 records with DPLA through the metadata aggregation service.
Explore all rich cultural heritage collections found across Texas’ libraries and archives through our newly launched TxHub website at texas.dp.la/. Through this site, you can search for all TxHUB records, including those contributed by the Portal to Texas History and via TDL’s metadata aggregation service.
New from TWU’s Gateway to Women’s History
In its initial harvest as a DPLA service user, Texas Woman’s University is sharing records from two collections in its Gateway to Women’s History repository: its Women Airforce Pilots Collection and its University Archives. Two representative images from these collections are featured below.
