New database features Nebraska authors
We are pleased to announce a new, publicly available database that features the work of Nebraska authors. The database can be accessed at nebraskaauthors.org.
The content digitally available in the Nebraska Authors database comes from the special collection on Nebraska Authors at the Lincoln City Libraries, known as the Jane Pope Geske Heritage Room of Nebraska Authors. The information has been collected by many dedicated volunteers and staff members over the past 50 years. Read more about the project here.
Support from the Nebraska Literary Heritage Association, Lincoln City Libraries, and the Center for Digital Research in the Humanities (CDRH) make this database available.
The database was unveiled at Lincoln City Libraries on Sunday, April 22. The Lincoln community gathered to learn about this special resource that celebrates Nebraska's diverse literary landscape. Professor and CDRH Co-Director Kay Walter said, "Nebraska Authors is making the literature of Nebraska widely visible. It has been a pleasure to participate in this project with the Lincoln City Libraries."
