California History Room Digitization & Content ManagementAt — Monterey Public Library and Museums
The California History Room at the Monterey Public Library contains thousands of books, documents, maps, photos and more of the Monterey Peninsula. The Library will be adding a digital content management system to our collection that increases accessibility and awareness of our collections. Service learners are needed to help review our collections to match cataloging records.
