The #metoo Digital Media Collection was a digital project of the Schlesinger Library on the History of Women in America, Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study, Harvard University. This project documented the digital footprint of the #metoo movement and the accompanying political, legal, and social battles in the United States and collected social media, news articles, statements of denial and/or apology, Web-forum conversations, legislation, lawsuits, statistical studies, Fortune 500 companies’ employment manuals, hashtags related to #metoo, and more. The material in the collection dates from 2007 with the creation of the #metoo hashtag by Tarana Burke and ended in 2022. The goal was to provide material for interdisciplinary research on #metoo.

Collection dates: 2007 - 2022.  After 2023, Schlesinger was not able to collect Tweets due to changes in Twitter's ownership and technology.
