Hi David, Have you looked at LOC's Labs group? https://labs.loc.gov/ They are part of LOC's digital initiatives group and have an LC for robots page available at: https://labs.loc.gov/lc-for-robots/ I am not sure about availability of your specific area of interest, but it's worth checking it out as they are doing some wonderful work there.

C4L, Anyone here ever harvest data from loc.gov's digital collections? I was looking for a data harvesting API but haven't seen one. Specifically, I'm trying to harvest data from: https://www.loc.gov/collections/slave-narratives-from-the-federal-writers-project-1936-to-1938/ ...to compare the data within this collection with data from another collection I'm working with to see if there are any matching narratives.
