The Digital Public Library of America (DPLA) is a free online library that provides access to millions of historical documents, public domain works, vintage photographs, maps, audiovisuals, and more from libraries, archives, and museums across the United States.
In one place a visitor is able to easily find items from a wide range of institutions. The one year old nonprofit has Community Representatives helping DPLA with outreach. I am pleased to be asked to join the second class and have the opportunity to help grow DPLA’s community of users and followers, while serving as an advocate for open access to the nation’s cultural resources.
