The Bowdoin College Library is pleased to announce the creation of a new platform, Bowdoin Digital Collections. This is the first step in bringing all of the Library’s Digital Collections & Projects into one system for access and preservation, including the contents of Bowdoin Digital Commons. Bowdoin Digital Collections will provide improved searching of content, streamlined access to Library digital collections and projects, and a more responsive interface for use on mobile devices. Bowdoin Digital Collections will formally go live in January, and at that point submissions of new material will be welcome. Bowdoin Digital Commons will remain available throughout the migration process until the new system is live. Please contact Digital Archivist Meagan Doyle (mdoyle@bowdoin.edu) with any questions.
