Furman University is in the process of migrating their extensive digital collections to a new software, TIND Digital Archive (TIND DA). With its modern and intuitive user interface and advanced metadata tools, TIND DA will help Furman make its materials more accessible and easier to use for researchers, students, and the public.

 Explore Furman’s Digital Collections

Furman’s digital collections contain 50 collections and nearly 30,000 items, including historical photographs, audio recordings of concerts and recitals, University publications, manuscripts, and rare books. Furman also hosts digital collections for seven cultural institutions in Upstate South Carolina in partnership with the South Carolina Digital Library.

“Furman University Libraries are excited to use TIND for our primary digital collections repository,” said Christy Allen, Associate Director for Digital and Resource Management. “We reviewed several digital collections systems, and selected TIND for its streamlined interface, intuitive user experience, and powerful searching capabilities. In 2026, Furman University will be celebrating its Bicentennial, and TIND will allow users to easily interact with the history of Furman University like never before.”
