Abstract

A multi-year project is underway featuring a collaboration between York University’s Clara Thomas Archives & Special Collections, the Map Library, and Bibliographic Services. Similar to projects at other institutions, our goal is to determine the geographic location of photos and create interactive maps of specific collections, in our case the John Warkentin fonds and Lou Wise fonds. Using visual examples, this poster presentation discusses the methodology we use at York University Libraries to create interactive maps of our digital collections.

Description

This poster presentation was presented at the annual conference of the Association of Canadian Archivists on June 9, 2017.
