AmericanSouth.Org is an o­n-going project undertaken at Emory University in collaboration with a large number of Southern research libraries that seeks to improve access to digital resources. Put simply, AmericanSouth harvests metadata, or information about information, from an amalgam of library and museum archives, pulling this metadata into a central location for aggregation, indexing, search, and discovery. The resulting digital library collection enables a researcher to conduct a combined search of the materials held by many different institutions.
