摘要

The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) library recently launched the Los Angeles Aqueduct Digital Platform (LAADP), an online educational resource featuring an archives portal that allows users to search thousands of digitized primary sources across the holdings of seven institutions and a scholarship section, which showcases digital research projects created by UCLA graduate students. The LAADP was developed in UCLA Library Special Collections by the Center for Primary Research and Training (CFPRT), an innovative program that equips scholars with skills that will enable them to effectively use special collections in their research and teaching careers.
