Penn Libraries Presents: AI, Metadata, and The Kaplan Collection: New Approaches for Digital Discovery with Laura Newman Eckstein

This talk will explore how we have leveraged AI tools to enhance the Arnold and Deanne Kaplan Collection of Early American Judaica. By improving metadata, searchability, and public access, AI-driven workflows are transforming how scholars and broader audiences engage with this vast collection. We will discuss the methodologies used, the challenges encountered, and the broader implications of AI in archival work.
