I have several gift books and coffee table books containing historical photographs from the early - mid 20th century. Those photographs and their stories fascinate me and open my eyes into the worlds that I never lived and the roads that I never walked. You can imagine my excitement when I read Flickr’s Recent Announcement regarding thousands of photos released to public domain from the Library of Congress! The Library of Congress is hoping that this release will welcome users to tag photos and add their own descriptions and stories behind them. I hope you can get some satisfaction from this new treasure opened up to the public and share your comments and photo-tagging of the collections, too. Happy browsing!
