About the Collection
This site is generated using CollectionBuilder-GH, a project to create a free and simple digital collection using GitHub Pages from:
- a CSV of collection metadata
- a folder of JPG images or PDF documents
This site features select baseball-related materials from the Joyce Sports Research Collection at the University of Notre Dame’s Hesburgh Libraries, Rare Books & Special Collections. Materials were selected by curator Dr. Greg Bond, and metadata was generated by students in Dr. Katherine Walden’s F24 “Baseball & America” course.

This digital collection is built with CollectionBuilder, an open source framework for creating digital collection and exhibit websites that is developed by faculty librarians at the University of Idaho Library following the Lib-Static methodology.
The site started from the CollectionBuilder-GH template which utilizes the static website generator Jekyll and GitHub Pages to build and host digital collections and exhibits.
