The other day, my Mister remarked about how amazing he thinks the New York Public Library's Digital Gallery is.
Now, this was the first I'd heard of NYPL's online library of images, so, of course, I had to see for myself. Let me just say that he wasn't exaggerating... it is an AMAZING resource for all manner of images. I found photographs, fashion illustrations, book jackets, sheet music, and postcards, to name a few, ranging from the distant past to the recent past. Just search a year, a place, a person, a topic and you'll be presented with hundreds of images to browse, study, or even embed, as I've done here.
And did I mention that this incredible resource is FREE? Thank goodness for public libraries!
And while I'm on the subject of libraries...
...Visit, use, and,
most of all, support your local library! :)
