In 2014, a group of Missouri libraries formed "MoHub" and began contributing data to DPLA. http://dp.la/search?partner%5B%5D=Missouri+HubIf you think your library might join MoHub, come find out: What are the data requirements? What is a CC0 license and why is it important? What is an MOU? How is MoHub structured and governed? What is its relationship to Missouri Digital Heritage? What questions would your library need to answer in order to participate?Are you or your patrons frustrated at hopping around to different websites to locate digitized primary source material? Come learn more about DPLA's portal and searching tools.Are you a data person who wishes that all our library catalogs and metadata could be repurposed?
