Digital Exhibits

Digital Scholarship Services provides consultation, design, and management support with building online exhibitions on Omeka. Omeka is an open-source web publishing tool for digital collections. Faculty and students can use this platform to publish and share digital content on the open web. This handbook prepared for CCNY faculty and students to learn more about Omeka can provide further information and assistance. To learn more about the digital exhibitions we have hosted, find a selection of projects below.
