Dublin’s Past at Your Fingertips

Access Dublin history anytime, anywhere.

The City of Dublin Heritage Center and the Dublin Library are proud participants in the California Local History Digital Resources Project (LHDRP).

The goal of LHDRP is to preserve local history resources such as historical photographs, providing permanent public access to a digital version. Working together, the Heritage Center and Dublin Library digitized 200 original photographs owned by the Museum.

These photographs tell Dublin’s story from Mexican land grants to early pioneers and immigrants. They reveal Dublin’s farming and ranching roots and its growth from a tiny, rural community to a thriving city. Pioneer families such as the Kolbs, Tehans, Murrays, Reimers and Fallons are well represented, as are historic buildings such as Old St. Raymonds, the Green Store and Murray School.

Access to the collection is provided by the University of California free public gateway of primary resources at Calisphere and at the Online Archive of California (OAC).

This project is supported in whole or in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act, administered in California by the State Librarian.
