Creating Visualizations of Digital Collections with Viewshare
نویسندگان
چکیده
Viewshare is a free, Library-of-Congress-sponsored platform that empowers historians, librarians, archivists and curators to create and customize dynamic interfaces to collections of digital content. This demonstration of Viewshare will start with an example spreadsheet or data harvested via OAI-PMH to generate distinct interactive visual interfaces (including maps, timelines, and sophisticated faceted navigation), which can be copy-pasted in any webpage. The data augmentation services associated with Viewshare will also be demonstrated.
