Abstract
Digital collections have been a part of Texas A&M University at Commerce Libraries holdings since 2006 and we want to ensure our digital content is as accessible as possible. In 2016, to expand our audience, identified images from a selected digital collection documenting university history that had entered the public domain. This project's goals are to provide people with high quality digital content that can be used and shared freely, and to determine if placing digital media in the public domain will direct more traffic back to the source material, which currently resides in our Northeast Texas Digital Collections, thus highlighting the overall collection.
