Virtual Tour of UF Digital Collections

Learn what the University of Florida Digital Collections (UFDC) have to offer, and how to fully explore the broad range of resources available. We'll cover the basics of UFDC: searching, advanced searching (including by collection and subcollection), viewing results, and saving images. We will also cover tips and tricks:

· collections that may be of particular interest or for use in teaching
· using the email contact forms for help
· and using the citation on items to find the permanent URL

The majority of the time will be spent learning about the wonderful resources available in UFDC and we'll spend time on three of the largest collections: the Florida Digital Newspaper Library, the Baldwin Historical Children's Literature Digital Collection, and the Digital Library of the Caribbean.
