Use caution with links and attachments.
On Monday, November 18 from 11am-2pm ET, the Leventhal Map & Education Center and UW-Milwaukee Libraries' American Geographical Society Library are jointly hosting a virtual forum on the Allmaps software ecosystem. Allmaps (https://allmaps.org<https://allmaps.org/>) is a set of open-source digital humanities tools that makes overlaying historic maps on modern geographies-a process commonly known as "georeferencing"-easier and more fun. The virtual forum is geared towards a wide range of potential users, from DH researchers to educators and librarians. It is completely free.
Learn more about the virtual forum and register here: https://lmec-ws.observablehq.cloud/allmaps-news/2024-convening

We hope to see you at the forum in November.
Thanks!
