The West Texas Digital Archives (WTDA) is a digital repository project of the Abilene Library Consortium. It is funded by the generous support of the Dodge Jones Foundation and the Dian Graves Owen Foundation.
The development and collection submission of the WTDA is on-going. The repository contains photographs, newspapers, yearbooks, letters, oral histories, periodicals, manuscripts, journals, documents, maps, audio files, and more. It also includes the newsletter of the 12th Armored Division Memorial Museum.
The WTDA uses DSpace, an open source digital repository software, which has been skillfully customized for our purposes by Belgium-based Dspace service provider, @mire NV.
Some of the material in the respository is subject to copyright restrictions. The user is responsible for obtaining permission from any copyright holders for publishing.
