This site uses Oakland Cemetery as a lens through which to better understand Atlanta, its history, and its connections to a globalized world. The goal of this collaboration between the Emory Center for Digital Scholarship and the Historic Oakland Foundation is to create a digital scholarship model that can be used to develop future web exhibitions about Oakland Cemetery that uncover and contextualize the interconnected histories of Oakland Cemetery and Atlanta.

This project consists of an Omeka site with an interactive map and an OpenTour Tour Site: "Oakland Cemetery."
