Albany Library Historical Photograph Digitization Project

Albany Methodist Church, 1918

In the fall of 2001, the library received a grant from the State Library for a Historical Photograph Digitization Project. During the project year 2001-02, more than 600 photographs from the local history collection were scanned and made available on the World Wide Web through the Alameda County Library web site. Federal funding for this project came from the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services, under the provisions of the Library Services & Technology Act (LSTA), administered in California by the State Librarian.
