Today's hours, libraries launches new digital collections.

March 28, 2024, 11 a.m.

Screen shot of Digital Collections website page.

Syracuse University Libraries recently launched its new Digital Collections site at https://digitalcollections.syr.edu . This new online resource, available through the Libraries’ website under the “Collections” menu tab, is produced and curated by the Libraries’ Digital Stewardship team and primarily features distinctive content from the Special Collections Research Center. The new Digital Collections site is housed on the Quartex software platform, which the Libraries selected in 2021 because of its flexibility and responsiveness as a digital asset management platform with extensive front-end capabilities that enable it to showcase, share and celebrate locally held materials with a global community of users.

Libraries’ users, including students, faculty, staff and global researchers, can find collections by choosing the subject topic, name, geographic location, original format or source collection from alphabetical drop-down menus. There are also various featured collections, including The Plastics Collection , Syracuse University Glass Plate Negative Collection , Gerrit Smith Collection or Syracuse Insurance Atlases Collection . The platform also allows for hosting various bespoke collections, like the Ted Koppel Collection .

In addition to hosting digital collections, the site serves as a portal to the Libraries’ digital exhibitions, including:

  • Our Doors Opened Wide: Syracuse University and the GI Bill, 1945-1950
  • Shut It Down: The 1970 Student Strike at Syracuse University
  • A Courageous Stand: The Story of the Syracuse 8
  • ‘Let the Reader Emerge!’ Milestones of the Syracuse University Libraries
  • A Legacy of Leadership: The Chancellors and Presidents of Syracuse University
  • 150 Years of Tradition at Syracuse University: a digital exhibition
  • We Remember Them: The Legacy of Pan Am Flight 103

“As we wrap up this phase of migrating content from the previous platform, our team is really excited to add new digital materials to the site and experiment with different approaches to spotlighting and creating increased access to our unique content,” said Déirdre Joyce, Head of Digital Stewardship and the Digital Library. “There are enormous opportunities to leverage the capabilities of this platform to support creative digital scholarship that we are just beginning to explore.”

“An increasingly key role for research libraries is building virtual libraries out of rare local collections so we can better preserve the originals and efficiently share them with the world whenever possible,” noted Scott Warren, Senior Associate Dean for Research Excellence. “By investing in state-of-the-art systems like Quartex, we amplify our ability to bring these critical cultural heritage items into Syracuse classrooms for use by Syracuse students and faculty and make them available to global researchers.” Added Warren, “I’m thrilled our new Digital Collections platform is live! It’s just one of the many ways the Libraries helps drive student success.”

Digging Into Nature

Research, scholarship and creativity coexist and thrive at Syracuse University. While such work is on display in April, when the campus joins in the global celebration of Earth Month and Earth Day , studying environmental issues and developing sustainable practices is not limited to a single month. All year long, Syracuse students and faculty engage in creative endeavors, like architecture, storytelling and visual art, to forge new relationships with and fresh insights into our natural world.

Sarah Fellingham ’24, a senior majoring in architecture , recently took a nature drawing course that was life-changing. “Creativity is the bedrock of innovation,” she says. “By pushing your creative limits, you can do things that you’ve never done before and experience nature in a new way.”

Drawing on Nature for Inspiration With Professor Susan D’Amato

Professor Susan D’Amato (right) says courses like Drawing Nature, which she teaches every fall, enable students to “have direct experience in nature with an intention toward deep attention and discovery.”

Art professor Susan D’Amato believes images have the potential to not only activate the unconsciousness, but also help us understand the human condition. Her drawings speak to “the correspondences of bodily, earthly and cosmological forms and to notions of fleeting and enduring time.”

She leads a popular fall course titled Drawing Nature (ARI 233), where students draw at local parks, forests and cemeteries. “It enables them to have direct experience in nature with an intention toward deep attention and discovery,” says D’Amato, whose students also study and draw fossils in the paleontology lab of Professor Linda Ivany ’88.

Phoebe Ellen Sessler ’27, a sophomore majoring in film , was scared to attempt so-called physical drawing until she met D’Amato. Now she considers art a meditation that regulates her personal and academic life. “In Nature Drawing, we bridge the gap between my favorite place to be—outside in nature—and the academic creative classroom,” says Sessler, who has learned how to draw flowers from direct observation and use a walnut ink stick.

“Sitting in nature and studying what’s around you helps you realize your vision—from thought to hand to paper,” Fellingham adds. “It’s calming and sometimes thought-provoking.”

A drawing-based artist, D’Amato is working on a long-term project called Taxonomy of Air; from the Ten Thousand Things . The numeric title is a Taoist reference to the universe’s material diversity. Inspired by walking meditations in nature, she’s producing 10,000 ink drawings on small, torn pieces of rice paper that hang from pins to a wall. “They’re based on the felt sense and memory of my contemplative experiences in nature.”

Building a Sustainable Future With Professor Bess Krietemeyer

“Teaching is about thinking outside the box,” says architecture professor Bess Krietemeyer. An expert in sustainable built environments, she’s training the next generation of architects in environmental health and equity. “I want my students to imagine what environmentally just, sustainable architecture can be.”

Bess Krietemeyer’s expertise in sustainable built environments permeates the Net-Zero Energy Retrofit Living Lab, which she co-leads with fellow architecture professor, Nina Wilson.

This attitude permeates the Net-Zero Energy Retrofit Living Lab , a three-year research project that Krietemeyer co-leads with fellow professor Nina Wilson. As part of the project, Krietemeyer designed an interactive, 3D exhibition at the Milton J. Rubenstein Museum of Science and Technology , extoling the personal, environmental and economic virtues of building retrofitting.

She and her students test these ideas on South Campus with support from a $5 million grant from the Department of Energy . Emily Lane G’24 draws on her chemistry background to better understand building materials, energy-efficient design and microecology. “I’m thinking beyond what is technically possible to become the architect I want to be,” says the master’s student of architecture .

Architectural creativity underscores almost everything Krietemeyer does. “Innovation emerges through productive constraints,” she says. “With design, we can inspire environmental consciousness and express diverse cultural identities."

Turning the Page on Environmental Storytelling With Professor Brice Nordquist

As climate change impacts biodiversity and human welfare, professors like Brice Nordquist are looking at environmentalism through a humanistic lens. He’s co-founder of the Environmental Storytelling Series (ESS) of Central New York, addressing the climate crisis with creative events, programs, workshops and courses.

“Environmental awareness, attunement and responsiveness require a full range of sensory, emotional and intellectual ways of knowing, being and doing,” says Nordquist, founder and director of the University’s Engaged Humanities Network (EHN) and professor of writing studies, rhetoric and composition .

Professor Brice Nordquist believes environmental storytelling can bridge the gap between science and the humanities. “It personalizes environmental justice, while encouraging interaction and collective action.”

He considers ESS a striking example of environmental humanities, bridging the gap between the sciences and humanities. “The series shows how different kinds of storytelling can personalize environmental justice , while encouraging interaction and collective action,” continues Nordquist, who also serves as Dean’s Professor of Community Engagement in the College of Arts and Sciences .

EHN research assistant Valeria Martinez Gutierrez ’26 took up creative writing after working with two ESS visiting artist-activists. “Their visit was transformative,” says the triple major in environment, sustainability and policy ; Earth sciences ; and sociology . “Amplifying the knowledge and voices of people of color and their communities is vital to the environmental decision-making process.”

Fusing Art and Ecology With Professors Susannah Sayler, Edward Morris and Mike Goode

“All art is ecological,” admits Professor Susannah Sayler, quoting the title of the Timothy Morton bestseller. “It affects our relationship with the world.”

This is the idea behind the University’s Canary Lab , where she and her husband, Edward Morris, develop research-based art and media focusing on ecology. “The Canary Lab is a hub for ecological thinking,” says Sayler, who along with Morris, serves on the faculty of the Department of Film and Media Arts . “We provide students with opportunities to read, discuss and create artworks about a range of ecological topics.”

The duo has co-curated Assembly: Syracuse University Voices on Art and Ecology with Mike Goode, the William P. Tolley Distinguished Teaching Professor in the Humanities, and Melissa Yuen, interim chief curator of the Syracuse University Art Museum . Running on campus this spring, the exhibition places objects from the museum’s permanent collection in dialogue with contemporary artwork by faculty and alumni artists.

“Our goal is to highlight environmental issues and foster ecological understanding,” says Tolley Professor Mike Goode of Assembly , which is on display in the Syracuse University Art Museum through May 12.

“Our goal is to highlight environmental issues and foster ecological understanding,” says Goode, who as a Tolley Professor, gives humanities faculty access to artwork and educational materials for the teaching of ecology and climate issues.

Abi Greenfield ’25 assisted with the exhibition, whose opening coincided with that of the museum’s Art, Ecology and Climate Project . (The project has used the museum’s collections to create 15 virtual exhibitions on ecology.) A junior majoring in history and political philosophy , she says that some of the objects currently on display are hundreds of years old, proving that ecologically minded art is nothing new. “It’s just coming to a head now.”
