Digitization at the Harry Ransom Center

http://hrc.contentdm.oclc.org/#nav_top

During my time at the Harry Ransom Center I was a part of the team working on increasing online collection content.  There are some truly amazing collection materials hidden away in the stacks at the HRC and through a continuing collaborative effort some of these treasures can now be seen without the trip to Austin, TX.  In the past year I have been privileged to work on many of these online collections including the Carl H. Pforzheimer Collection which contains manuscript materials dating from 1485 to 1844, as well as the photography collections of Lewis Carroll and Julia Margaret Cameron.  You can see these collections along with all of the Harry Ransom Center's digital collections by following the link above.
