Curation Corps

The DPLA Curation Corps is a group of librarians, information professionals and library graduate students who develop collections for the DPLA’s ebook projects including the Palace Bookshelf, Open eBooks and Palace Marketplace. DPLA relies on the expertise of the library community members who participate in the Curation Corps to create collections patrons will love. Questions? Contact us.
Palace Bookshelf is a collection of open access content available through Palace Marketplace, formerly DPLA Exchange, making it easier for libraries to build their open book offerings. As part of the Curation Corps, members help select open access ebook titles, ranging from classics to textbooks to children’s books, for this collection that public libraries will find valuable.
