The Winona Railroad Collection is a ContentDM based digital library covering the history of the Winona Railroad interurban railroad through pictures, postcards, and media articles. For this project I oversaw the digital scanning of all materials (over nine hundred total items), developed the metadata structure for ContentDM, and assisted Morgan Library’s director (an expert in the history of the Winona Railroad) with inserting metadata for each item.
Metalib is a federated search product from Ex Libris which connects multiple databases into one search platform. For this project I setup each Morgan Library database into the MetaLib KnowledgeBase, customized the stylesheet and page templates to match the current design of the Morgan Library website, and established quickset categories.
Print Journal Listings in SFX
SFX is a linking product from Ex Libris which connects full text material listings of multiple databases. While Morgan Library was using SFX, it did not have its print journal holdings in SFX, which included many non-electronic titles. For this project I developed and formatted a list of Morgan Library’s journal holdings with ISSN’s, and imported it into a newly made SFX ‘target’ which acts as a online database listing.
