Description

The Blacklight Project Showcase currently highlights 31 example sites:
https://projectblacklight.org/#examples

The page is populated by the content & images here:
https://github.com/projectblacklight/projectblacklight.github.com/blob/master/_data/showcase.yml
https://github.com/projectblacklight/projectblacklight.github.com/tree/master/images/showcase

Almost half (14) of these featured sites no longer use Blacklight, and 6 of the links currently lead to 404s.

At the Oct 2024 Blacklight Summit, attendees noted many excellent example implementations in a spreadsheet here that would make good modern candidates to feature:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Sn-nK63MXXP7LJjP6y7S7k2SHOLajDx-yg7Z3-oAe78/edit?gid=0#gid=0

Can we update the examples featured in the showcase (and perhaps even link to the spreadsheet from the site)? I know I find it quite helpful to look around at what other implementers are doing. We'd likely need some kind of process for institutions to opt into being featured and provide/review the description of their site.
