Abstract: The Portal to Texas History and the UNT Digital Library contain more than 445,000 unique items collectively, hosted by the University of North Texas (UNT) Libraries. These UNT digital collections include a wide variety of serial publications such as organizational newsletters and magazines, scholarly journals, annual reports, and yearbooks. Many of these serials are key resources for the user groups of both repositories. This presentation will discuss the importance of serials within our digital collections, the standards we use for representing serials, and how we leverage metadata to facilitate access to serials for diverse global users.
