The Archives

Photo Collection Online

Here, you’ll find the ability to search, view, and order images in The Archives, as well as access information associated with them.  There are several options for searching:

KEYWORD SEARCH — Probably the most effective way to search if you have some sense of what you’re looking for.

RANDOM IMAGES — Get acquainted with our collection simply by exploring. This is a fun way to start!

SEARCH BY TERM — Search your topic of interest, or title, by alphabetical listing.  For example, if you’re interested in all photographs of or associated with Germantown Avenue, click “G” under the TITLE field and then view the results.  If you’re searching under “CREATOR,” search by first name; for example, look under “A” for Alan Worthington.

ADVANCED SEARCH—Use this Search option if you have fairly detailed information about what you’re looking for or want to limit the search by date.

BROWSE PHOTOS—Have some time and want to start from the top? This is a list of all the photos currently archived.
