Special Collections Learning Lab intern Katherine Elmore, a rising UK senior, recently participated in the Data Driven: Digital Humanities in the
Libraries conference in Charleston, S.C.
She presented her research on the Daniel Drake Carter Collection, which
she processed and created a digital project for during the SC Learning Lab
internship.
The project, which used content-management system Tiki-Toki,
comprised a collection of letters and A/V materials detailing the 1870s scarlet
fever epidemic in Kentucky. Elmore, a history major, also participated in the
conference's CURATEcamp workshop which explored innovative ideas and programs
to make archival collections more accessible to both scholars and the public.
