Abstract

Scalar, a project of the Alliance for Networking Visual Culture (ANVC), is an open source authoring and publishing platform that allows archives, museums, and libraries to bring media from multiple sources togethe create long-form, born-digital content. As part of the Indiana University Bicentennial, the IU East Archives sought a way to showcase content so that it could be accessible to online students and researchers. Scalar allowed the archivist to create a digital book containing photos, oral histories, news articles, and research. This talk will provide an overview of Scalar, a rationale for the project, and the challenges and benefits of using the platform.
