A Digital Window into Minnesota�s Past
Through the Minnesota Digital Library Coalition (MDLC), over 6,000 historical images have come together in Minnesota Reflections, a searchable digital collection of the state's past. The images were culled from the individual collections of 55 historical societies, special collections, museums, and libraries including the University Archives and the Minnesota Orchestra Archives and Northwest Architectural Archives within University Libraries. Minnesota Reflections is the first digitization effort by the MDLC, and this web-based collection features digital copies of photographs, stereographs, and postcards from across Minnesota, all taken or produced prior to 1909. Sneak a peak through this marvelous digital window and browse the collection at http://reflections.mndigital.org/.
