ViaNolaVie ViaNolaVie.org is a cultural and lifestyle magazine created by citizens of New Orleans and Tulane University students. Articles focus on stories and issues relevant to people living and visiting New Orleans. The site currently has more than 7,500 articles and has been published since 2018.
During Fall 2019 and Spring 2020, DRI Interns curated two week-long themed curations of preexisting ViaNolaVie articles. By doing so interns helped to curate the over 7500 stories in VNV archives in new and fun ways to give them new life and new perspectives on the most important issues facing New Orleanians today. With the help the Tulane Technology Services, the DRI interns are aiming to create a WordPress Plug-In to allow ViaNolaVie articles to be merged onto the Tulane archives website. Interns have become familiar with WordPress's backend through publishing VNV articles, and will create a plugin that utilises RSS feeds to merge ViaNolaVie with Tulane archives.
