DCL and NYPL Digitize U.S. Copyright Office Records
DCL and The New York Public Library (NYPL) finished the initial phase of their project to digitize and organize the historical records of the U.S. Copyright Office to make them more easily searchable and accessible. These particular records comprise hundreds of thousands of pages dating from 1923 to 1964. Later project phases will concentrate on making the data accessible on a web-based platform.“By extracting and structuring over a hundred years of unstructured copyright records into an accurate unified database, NYPL will unlock previously buried information to create an important resource for researchers and the public, world-wide, to further facilitate NYPL’s mission,” says Mark Gross, DCL’s president. For more information, read the press release.
