<p class="MsoNormal">It was a pleasure to see some new faces yesterday at the Ohiodig Meeting. As I mentioned, Peter Kukla and I run the
<a href="http://ohiodigitalnetwork.org/">Ohio Digital Network</a> <a href="http://dp.la/">
DPLA’</a>s Service Hub for the State of Ohio. We collect metadata of Ohio collections to send to DPLA as another discovery layer for your digitized collections. If you have any questions about ODN or DPLA please contact me.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The State Library of Ohio Extended the deadline for the Metadata Mini-Grants until July 31. The Metadata Mini-Grant is an excellent way to help cover the costs of metadata remediation or digitization to prepare collections for DPLA.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you have any questions about DPLA or this grant please contact me.
