During a major cataloging project at the State Library, the
staff rediscovered many of our beautiful collections, including maps, photographs,
and manuscripts. These collections are now fully cataloged and can be found in
our online catalog.
One of my favorites is the “Photographs of Old Boston” collection,
which we were able to digitize and can be found in the Library’s digital repository,
DSpace or through the Library’s Flickr page.
Public Garden, 1857 |
John Hancock House, 1860 |
You can access the full collection from either DSpace or the
Library’s Flickr page.
