Vermont Green Mountain Digital Archive is Now a Digital Public Library of America (DPLA) Service Hub
From DPLA:
We are pleased to welcome Vermont Green Mountain Digital Archive as the newest DPLA Service Hub. The Vermont Hub, which is led by Middlebury College, represents a collaboration between Middlebury, the Vermont Department of Libraries, Vermont Historical Society, Vermont State Archives, and the libraries of Norwich University, the University of Vermont, and St. Michael’s College, which in turn represent collections from a number of other libraries, archives, museums, and historical societies across the Green Mountains.
Vermont Green Mountain Digital Archive’s 57,000 items include local and regional history like photographs capturing rural New England town life; Vermonters’ Civil War letters, and broadsides dating to the 18th century, alongside materials that are international in scope like Dr. Edgar Hyde’s photographs from his service as an Army Medical Corps officer during World War II.
