Public libraries, museums and archives
As a cultural lifeline for your community, your repository documents lives, places, and events. It’s vital that your patrons can access and study these treasures digitally, as easily as they can in person.
Create and publish individual digital collections and build more at scale. Launch your site with a single collection that celebrates a significant local milestone or release a suite of cultural heritage collections that showcase your community’s past and actively engage contributors in documenting its present.
Dynamic engagement
Engage your community with visually dynamic digital collections sites and exhibits that celebrate local milestones.
Showcase transcriptions
Showcase oral histories with automatic, editable and searchable transcriptions and closed captions. Invite further contributions of memories and assets to create living archives.
Promote discovery
Promote discovery and access with powerful search and display features, and enable users to bookmark assets for easy reference with My Account.
Create a destination, not just a digital collection
Quartex offers you much more than a website for your digital collections. It provides you with an engagement tool that brings you closer to the people you serve.
Public libraries, museums and archives are using Quartex in creative ways to open meaningful dialogues with their communities.
When I saw what Quartex could do in terms of providing an asset management system and discovery layer, including our digital exhibits, we really needed to make the switch.
Harris County Public Library
"Exhibits have allowed us to create a lovely, personal and emotional connection between the community and the collections."
Sonoma County Library
"With Quartex, all of our local digital projects [...] can finally be in one place and that has been our goal for many years."
Improving access to New England's Congregational history
For more than a decade, the Congregational Library & Archives (CLA) has been on a journey to digitise and transcribe the records of Colonial and Early American Era Congregational churches and Congregationalists as part of its New England's Hidden Histories project.
With AM Quartex, these 170 collections, containing more than 4,000 individual items - and a new digital exhibit - are more accessible and easier to find than ever before, as archivist Zachary Bodnar reveals.
Some of the organisations we work with
Peabody Essex Museum
Serving a global audience
"Broadening access to our collections is a core strategic goal for the Phillips Library. We selected Quartex for its combination of features that will help us accomplish that."
Shakespeare's Globe
Unprecedented research opportunities
"Shakespeare’s Globe is thrilled to be part of First Folios Compared [...]. AM has already done us proud with the digital ‘Shakespeare's Globe Archive: Theatres, Players & Performance’ and the ‘Read Not Dead Archive’, also built with AM Quartex, and I have no doubt that First Folios Compared will prove just as engrossing, revelatory and user-friendly."
Congregational Library & Archives
Improved discoverability
"Automatic transcription, through Quartex's HTR technology, presents us with new and exciting possibilities to increase the accessibility and reach of the CLA's manuscript materials."
International Mission Board
Expanding awareness of society’s mission
"Quartex is so far ahead in terms of technology, partnership values and the attitude that the team brings to the table. If I could give Quartex six stars out of five, I would."
Cork City Libraries
Helping to relaunch the most popular collections
"We are excited to re-release this collection representing the most popular items sought by our users and which provides information on Cork's history, culture, places, people, and events. We will continue to build on the collections with a focus on refining and enriching both the collections and the user experience."
Cape Ann Museum
Sparking a passion for research into local history
"We chose Quartex because of the ability to make a dynamic, visually stunning website using Quartex’s built-in site design options and flexible site editing tools."
Harris County Public Library
Strengthening engagement
"Exhibits have allowed us to create a lovely, personal and emotional connection between the community and the collections."
Sonoma County Library
Documenting shared experiences
"With Quartex, all of our local digital projects (including digitized archival and special collections materials, our local databases, and the various collections from our partner organizations) can finally be in one place and that has been our goal for many years."
