The University of Michigan Library is justly famous for our efforts to digitize our print
collections, and to make them as freely available as possible via the Internet. We
led the creation of HathiTrust, a partnership of institutions offering open access to
millions of readable and fully-searchable volumes.
But our digital initiatives extend much further—for example, at quod.lib.umich.
edu you’ll find more than 250 collections of images, texts, bibliographies, and
finding aids. There you can search for a specific collection, browse by title, format,
subject, and more, and search the text collections for specific words or phrases. These
collections feature our own digitized print materials, as well as those of other U-M
departments, including the Bentley Historical Library, and local institutions, includ-
ing the Ann Arbor District Library.
Among other things, these digital collections enable scholars here and everywhere
to access primary-source and image materials for their research, and for the public to
have ready access to images documenting the rich history of the university.
