Preserving Our Legacy: How we built a database to find commemorative plaques on campus

Research output: Contribution to conferencePresentation

Abstract

Do you have plaques all over your campus honoring alumni and friends of your University?  Have you ever wished you could record those plaques' existence?  Do you have visitors come to your campus wanting to find their family's plaque? 

The Harding Remembers project provides a web-based search interface for a database of commemorative emblems from all over the campus. The interface integrates with Google Maps allowing for plaque location assistance.  This unique resource is used by students, staff and visitors alike.
