Subject: [DHSI] Sourcery Launches Sourcery Anywhere!
To: [email protected] <[email protected]>

Hello, readers! I’d like to take a moment to highlight Sourcery, a free
software app built and maintained by researchers at the University of
Connecticut’s Greenhouse Studios (http://greenhousestudios.uconn.edu/) and
operated as an open source software project by Digital Scholar
(http://digitalscholar.org/), a not-for-profit corporation.

Sourcery (http://sourceryapp.org/)aims to improve how researchers request
document scans from archivists and how archivists fulfill those requests.
For archivists, Sourcery provides archivists a streamlined, cross-platform
(mobile, tablet, or laptop) reference scanning workflow, including tools
to: help clarify, categorize, staff, and track outstanding requests; and
manage researcher communication. For researchers, Sourcery aims to provide
a single, simple interface for requesting remote access to not-yet
digitized documents at repositories around the world.

Today, the Sourcery team is extremely excited to announce the launch of
something we have been working toward for many months: Sourcery Anywhere!

Here’s how it works. Simply login to your Sourcery account
(https://sourceryapp.org/), find the repository where your desired document
is located in our list of partners, or — if you don’t see it listed — type
its name and location in the text box. Add your citation information, hit
submit, and Sourcery will facilitate your request. Your documents will
appear in your Sourcery account as soon as the archivists at the relevant
institution can deliver them. No more searching through email for
correspondence with archivists at multiple institutions to see if you’ve
received a response. No more hunting around the archive’s help pages for
request forms. Just all your research requests, from anywhere, all in one
place.

If you’re spending this winter break on a research project, think Sourcery!

You can read more about Sourcery (and our partnerships with familiar faces
like ArchivesSpace) on our blog! And follow us on social media through the
Linktree (https://linktr.ee/sourceryapp).

Please let your students/faculty/colleagues know about this great new
resource!
