CONTENTdm Featured Collections: January 2008

Organizations worldwide are using CONTENTdm® Digital Collection Management Software to create thousands of outstanding digital collections and to provide easy access to their unique holdings.

This month, three collections from the CONTENTdm Collection of Collections are featured on the CONTENTdm Web site. The featured collections for January are the University of Utah Institutional Repository, TIDES and Francisco Goya Prints.

Included in the collection information below is a link to each organization’s record in the OCLC WorldCat Registry. OCLC’s WorldCat Registry allows libraries worldwide to manage and organize their data for vendors and third parties by creating and maintaining a comprehensive institutional profile in a single, Web-accessible location.
