"It was the library's belief in the power of storytelling that caught my eye and drew me to contact them. Great partnerships always start with common beliefs." - Justin Moore, Director of Business Development, Codex.
For years now Herrick District Library (Herrick DL) in Holland, Michigan has been building its local history archive. Among this archive is a great oral history collection that continues to grow. As this collection grows, through continued work with the community, the staff were looking for a great way to start sharing these treasures.
Herrick DL is partnering with Codex to give them the opportunity to share their collections with the world using a unique digital storytelling technology unlike any other.
"With Codex's easy to use collections and digital storytelling software, we will be able to store our records and build beautiful exhibits that highlight the many treasures found within our collections. It's exciting to know that all of these stories will be easily accessed by our community and preserved for years to come." - Anne Harrison, Public Services Librarian, Herrick District Library.
"Codex presents a great opportunity for libraries to celebrate their community and truly connect with them digitally. We are excited to work with Herrick District Library in Michigan and look forward to building many more partnerships in the US." - Jenny Hill, President, Dadavan Systems.
Codex is a software platform developed by the team at Dadavan Systems, based in Waverley, Nova Scotia, Canada. Dadavan Systems is a software development company that has been in business since 1998 creating software for engaged, inspired, and connected communities and organizations.
