The MN Digital Library, Minnesota Reflections, and Digitizing Your Collections

Join Marian Rengel, Outreach Coordinator for the Minnesota Digital Library, for a free online informational session on the hows and whys of contributing to Minnesota Reflections, an online collection of more than 85,000 photographs, maps, journals, documents and sound recordings contributed by more than 125 Minnesota cultural heritage organizations.

Learn how to get started and how to plan new projects to digitize photos, documents, sound, and more. Or, you may attend to have your questions answered. You will also learn about the Minnesota Digital Library (MDL) and the benefits of collaborating with the MDL on your digital projects. You will learn about funding possibilities and options. This presentation will help you decide if the time is right for your institution to begin a digital project with the Minnesota Digital Library.

The Minnesota Digital Library is now accepting applications for projects for Phase 8 of the development of Minnesota Reflections, our digitization and database project. We will accept applications through April 30, 2012, or until we have committed all of our digitization funding. Visit the MN Digital Library website for more information about the criteria for participation and to view the application form:
