Indiana Memory: Preserving and Accessing Indiana’s Cultural Heritage

Indiana Memory is a digital library initiative dedicated to preserving and providing access to Indiana’s cultural heritage. Launched in 2003, it promotes collaboration between libraries, museums, and cultural institutions. With the support of LSTA funding, the project has created a framework for partnership, facilitating the development of digital collections. Now, eight libraries utilize the ISL CONTENTdm license, resulting in over 50 accessible collections. Workshops and ongoing improvements aim to enrich this initiative, enhancing visibility and access to Indiana's historical treasures for all.
