MCID Metadata Restructuring 2024 - 2026 Image Database

With over 110,000 new individual images added to MCID in the last couple years from digitization projects alone, MCID's reliance on collections as a primary organizational focus hinders findability of these important new resources.

This project is still in process and will be announced formally when available.
