Description of Project:
OpenValley is an Omeka website whose goal is to "facilitate original research by undergraduates utilizing archival materials, local fieldwork, and digital tools." Its focus is Genesee Valley history. So far, archival materials on the site have been drawn from Milne Library at Geneseo's Wadsworth Family Papers, from the library's 70-year collection of diaries written by a Springwater, NY farmer named Sheffield Peabody, and the collection of more than 200 easel paintings in the New Deal Gallery in Mt. Morris produced through the Roosevelt-era Works Projects Administration.
How it was Made:
OpenValley is an Omeka Classic site.
