Oseredok, Winnipeg's Ukrainian Cultural and Educational Centre, Launches New Online Catalogue
Oseredok, Winnipeg's Ukrainian Cultural and Educational Centre, has been working hard for over a year to bring their collections to the public! We've accepted a challenge to defy the limited physical space of our building and went digital, says Sloboda, a Curator of collections at the Centre, who talks about how to use an online catalogue in this episode.
Oseredok is the first in the North American Ukrainian Heritage Community to offer remote access to its collections through Online Catalog! Providing access to and promoting the Ukrainian Canadian heritage is paramount to Oseredok!
Online Catalog allows you to browse our collections remotely, whether at home, work, or traveling! If you have an Internet connection, you can visit us 24/7!
Online Catalog gives you access to our four collections: museum, archives, fine art, and library. Our collections still need to be cataloged and digitized; however, we can offer you a good representation of our holdings: 1252 museum artifacts, 1235 library holdings, 424 fine art pieces, 4583 photographs, and 600 glass slides. The Catalog is a living-breathing system that will be constantly updated as we secure funding to catalog and digitize the remaining holdings.
You can browse or search our collections using Online Catalog functionalities by object type, date, material, technique, artist, author, donor, location, etc. The video and PDF tutorials on using the Catalog are available in English and Ukrainian on their website, according to Sloboda.

The project is funded by the Department of Canadian Heritage and administered by the Canadian Association of Community Television Users and Stations (CACTUS).
