The Goucher College Library Digital Library supports the teaching and learning mission of the college and serves users through the creation and delivery of online digital collections.  As part of the Library’s digital initiatives, the Digital Library serves four main functions:

  • Digitization- conversion of text and image-based material to digital format
  • Digital Preservation- managing digital assests to ensure long-term access
  • Digital Collection Development- thoughtful identification, selection, and description of intellectual assests to create useful digital collections
  • Digital Scholarship- participate in the campus-wide initiative to support teaching, learning, and research by promoting the use of electronic resources in the classroom and beyond
