Education by Design Education by Design is an online exhibit and image database of over 700 historic educational visual aids owned by the Bienes Center for the Literary Arts: The Dianne and Michael Bienes Special Collections and Rare Book Library located at Broward County Main Library in downtown Fort Lauderdale, Florida. These educational visual aids are significant, not only for their aesthetic beauty, but also as cultural and historical artifacts. All these items were produced under President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal jobs creation program, the Works Progress Administration (WPA), founded in 1935. The agency was renamed the Work Projects Administration in 1939 and operated until June, 1943. Dublin Core records describe the original, physical piece rather than the digital image representing the artifact. There are extensive notes on cataloging, including a data dictionary, DC / MARC Crosswalk and file-naming conventions.

Oregon Historic Photograph Collection The Salem Public Library's historic photograph collections include thousands of photographs of Oregon - with a special focus on the City of Salem and other Western Oregon communities. The photos date from the mid-1800's to the present. All photographs are digitized and searchable online.

Ben Maxwell Collection The Ben Maxwell Collection consists of over 5,000 photographs donated to the Salem Public Library by the photgrapher's estate. Most of the photographs were taken by Mr. Maxwell, a noted Salem photographer and historian who died in 1967. Mr. Maxwell was born in Salem in 1898. He attended college at Oregon State University, where he studied history and journalism. He started working with the Capitol Journal newspaper in 1939. Because he packed his camera on every quest for historical stories, he was able to illustrate his articles for readers of the Capitol Journal, the Oregon Journal, the Oregonian, and several magazines. He recorded on film at least 13 governors, old-timers now gone, covered bridges now missing, and buildings and homes no longer standing. The collection includes copies of rare early Oregon photographs taken by others that have in turn been copied over and over by later researchers and feature-story writers. Many more photographs remain to be scanned and added to this work in progress. Agriculture; Natural disasters; Salem; Homes; Houses; Architecture; Aerial views; Automobiles; Covered bridges; 9. Alliance Memory The Alliance Memory project, funded in part through an Institute of Museum and Library Services LSTA grant, is a joint venture of Rodman Public Library, the Alliance Historical Society, Alliance City Schools, Negro History Club, Haines House, and Copeland Oaks. The collection includes historic photographs of Alliance from the Alliance Historical Society, photographs of Taylorcraft Airplanes and Morgan Engineering from collections at Rodman Public Library, oral history recordings and transcriptions from the 1960s and 1970s held by Rodman Public Library, and video interviews of World War II veterans who live at Copeland Oaks, a retirement community in nearby Sebring, Ohio.
