We are collaborating with Performant Software Soultions LLC, a software company based in Charlottesville, Virgnia that specializes in higher education technologies to develop a visual comparison plug-in for Omeka. Registered users will be able to search the novel’s database of covers and illustrations using their own thematic and historical interests. They can then pull up to twenty relevant illustrations into the tool to compare them side-by-side, add their own image annotations, and develop user galleries based on their interests in the corpus.
