5 Things Thursday: DPLA, DAM, Archives

In honor of my 450th post, here are five things plus for your enjoyment:

  1. Check out all the super cool content accumulating on DPLA. I especially like the explore options (by map, by timeline) and also collections like the ski archives from Mountain West Digital Library.

  2. Can a DAM system be both functional and beautiful? In my opinion, this is the next level of evolution for DAM - read what CMS Wire has to say on the subject.

  3. Have you been searching for personal digital archiving resources? Your search is over thanks to the Backblog.

  4. Read this piece on linked data and name matching. Interesting points about epithets, special characters, mismatches, etc.

  5. Do you want to learn more about the WorldCat API? Here's a workshop for you coming up next week.


BONUS: Get a cool metadata sticker for your notebook, skateboard or car.
