Save the date: Kentucky Digital Library meeting October 27

A meeting to share plans for the refresh of the Kentucky Digital Library will be held Friday, October 27, 2017, from 1 pm to 4 pm at the Council on Postsecondary Education in Frankfort, KY.

KDL as currently hosted at the University of Kentucky will be coming to an end. Before this occurs, the new KDL will be taking shape on OCLC’s CONTENTdm platform.

If your institution is interested in sharing your digital content with the world, please plan to join us. Topics to be covered include:

• A brief history and future of KDL
• An introduction of CONTENTdm features and functionality from OCLC
• Information about the cost of participating (spoiler alert: surpassingly affordable for small collections)
• Next steps
