At long last, a bit of time has been found for upgrading the archives from Omeka to Omeka S and doing some clean-up and standardization of item metadata. The result is more consistent and informative item entries in a refreshed interface, but also the ability to craft more user-friendly “exhibitions” of materials that should make some of the most commonly accessed items easier to find and use. Right now, you can explore Lux Madriana’s publications and the papers of Madria Olga Lotar in this way, and other exhibitions will be added in the future.
Thanks to a generous donation from Mr David Kay, there is also a new item in the archives: the wall calendar produced by Lux Madriana for the Iron Age year 5083 (Gregorian 1981–82), illustrated by Master Richard.
