[Apologies for the crosspost] Tufts University Digital Collections and Archives, in conjunction with TTS Educational & Scholarly Technology Services, is pleased to announce the launch of our new discovery interface for the Tufts Digital Library <http://dl.tufts.edu/>. This new application, built to support our long-established Fedora Commons-based repository, is an implementation of Hydra, with a customized Blacklight UI built with Bootstrap.
Our old interface, an entirely homegrown application written in Java, served us well for nearly a decade, and we are thankful for the designers and developers who helped us bring our materials to the public as one of the earlier university digital libraries. Now we have a new design which brings a modern discovery interface to our users, a modular code base on which we can easily build, and a broad community of developers with whom we can collaborate. We are excited that the new interface exposes the gems of our collection and makes them more readily available to our users. We are releasing the code for this interface under an Apache 2 .0 license. It is available at <https://github.com/mkorcy/tdl_hydra_head>. DCA is grateful for everyone who has helped us bring this new interface from design to fruition in one year, and to the Hydra, Blacklight, and Fedora communities.
