Digital Resources & Imaging Services is a new department dedicated to the creation of digital content from the Trinity College Library Dublin's extensive collections of Early Printed Books and Manuscripts. The DRIS department is currently engaged in the development of a digital library collections online repository to provide open access to these valuable cultural and academic resources.

The project's aim is to create an online database research tool that will provide enhanced user access to a large corpus of visual images from unknown or lesser-known Irish illustrated periodicals published in the nineteenth century. The source material for this project was chosen from selected collections housed in the Russell Library, Maynooth.

UCDscholarcast is a research-oriented podcasting initiative. Our podcasts are studio-recorded to broadcast standard and are aimed at a wide academic audience of scholars, graduate students, undergraduates and interested others. Each scholarcast is accompanied by a downloadable PDF transcript to facilitate citation in written academic work.
