Academic Library Access (CONNECT)
CARLI Digital Collections was established in 2006 as a
repository for digital content created by member
libraries of the Consortium of Academic and Research
Libraries in Illinois (CARLI) or purchased by the
consortium for use by its members. CARLI Digital
Collections uses the CONTENTdm digital asset
management tool to describe and deliver digital
representations of myriad special collections
including printed and manuscript materials, images,
and sound recordings. It also guarantees researchers
access to cross-institution and cross-collection
searches integrating previously disparate and possibly
remote special collections.
CARLI Digital Collections is a growing image and
special collections research resource for faculty, staff,
students, and the public. By combining digital
collections from a number of CARLI member
institutions into a seamless environment, researchers
are guaranteed richer search results on a variety of
topics.
