One-switch publishing
Build a focused collection from selected items or matching tags, then choose its visibility without publishing your whole catalog.
See what collectors choose to share
Collectors can make any collection public, add it to a GatherThat profile, and share it through a simple link or QR code.

Why it matters
A public collection can focus on a theme, creator, period, exhibition, reading project, or any other story. It draws from maintained records while presenting only the items and context the collector chooses.
Because the collection has a stable public home, it can be shared in a message, embedded in a broader project, or linked from a physical display with a QR code.
