Preservation of the Illinois State University Photo Services Collection
The purchase of supplies to rehouse 250,000 photographic negatives created between 1938 and 1995 that document the history of the university and the surrounding region. The images capture the changes in student life in the classroom and extracurricular activities during these years.
A grant from the NEH would support the rehousing of negatives from the Photo Services Collection in the Illinois State University University (ISU) Archives. The photographs, taken by ISU campus photographers, date from 1938 to the 1995 and show the physical facilities and campus life of ISU and the surrounding community of Bloomington-Normal.
