2. In Essence
The DPLA makes over 10 million items —
photographs, manuscripts, books, sounds,
moving images, and more—from libraries,
archives, and museums around the U.S.
Users can browse and search DPLA
collections by timeline, map, visual bookshelf,
format, and topic; save items to customized
lists; and share their lists with others
Users can also explore digital exhibitions
curated by DPLA content partners and staff
