See what collectors choose to share

Every public collection is a window into someone’s curiosity.

Collectors can make any collection public, add it to a GatherThat profile, and share it through a simple link or QR code.

Every public collection is a window into someone’s curiosity.

Why it matters

Publish a collection as a curated view, not a database dump.

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.

What it brings together

Built around the way collectors actually work.

01

One-switch publishing

Build a focused collection from selected items or matching tags, then choose its visibility without publishing your whole catalog.

02

Collector profiles

Give public collections a recognizable home connected to the collector.

03

Community search

Help other people discover the collection through GatherThat search and exploration.

04

Links that travel

Share a public URL through social, text, email, a website, or a printed QR code.

In practice

A public collection can be useful beyond GatherThat.

  • Document a themed shelf, exhibition, or research project.
  • Share a focused collection or a collecting milestone.
  • Give a club, archive, or prospective buyer a focused view.
