Make It Searchable, Keep It Meaningful: Rethinking Ephemera in Digital Libraries

Sudha Anand

Indiana University, United States of America

Brief Abstract

This presentation shares how digital collection design and metadata gathering workflows helped enhance discovery of Latin American and Caribbean political ephemera. By capturing item-level metadata at scale and enabling cross-repository harvesting, the project integrates collections into broader networks, transforming ephemera into discoverable, interoperable data for sustained access and comparative scholarship.
