The ACOR Library Photographic Archive, a grant-funded project carried out from 2016–2020, digitized 30,000 images of cultural heritage sites from Jordan and the surrounding region. A second four-year project (2020–2024), The ACOR Digital Archive, also funded by the U.S. Department of Education, will make available over 18,000 additional images and multimedia media resources.
The resources presented online through the database are intended for open access, and are free to use for research and academic purposes.
