Projects and Collections

OurOntario

OurOntario is part of the larger Knowledge Ontario project. This piece of the project collects digital cultural content about Ontario from: libraries, archives, museums, cultural heritage institutions, community groups, and individuals.

It is also a wonderful example of the openness, user focus and interoperability of the Read/Write web.

OurOntario: Yours to Recover
A presentation by Walter Lewis and Art Rhyno at the 2007 Access Conference. They discuss the technology behind the project, and the collaborative, social aspects of it.

BBC History: The Abolition of the Slave Trade

This interactive narrative of the abolition of the British slave trade is built on Google Maps, but integrates text and images from a wide variety of archives, libraries and other sources.

Google Maps Mania
This blog provides an almost-comprehensive list of mashups based on Google Maps - an impressive feat.

Digital History Hacks
