Zeega is a project to enable faculty, students, staff and the general public to view, curate, annotate, exhibit and remix Harvard-owned digital multimedia. It provides integrated tools for collection building, multimedia editing, experience design and cross-platform publishing. The Zeega toolkit attributes include connections between repositories and media types, new modes of visualization and geographic access, and curation through online exhibitions and slideshows. Zeega has continued to evolve and develop since the Library Lab project ended.

This project is a unique partnership between metaLAB (at) Harvard, a research unit at the Berkman Center for Internet and Society; Frances Loeb Library at the Graduate School of Design; and Zeega.org, an independent non-profit organization.
