Photoarchives

Museum of Natural History
Roger Williams Park,
Providence

 


The information found here was produced as part of a project, aided by a grant from the Rhode Island Committee for the Humanities, to identify, describe, make available, and disseminate information about, the photographs in the Roger Williams Park Museum of Natural History archives. The project included the development of a database and finding aid to increase the accessibility of the images, as well as to properly store them.

There are two documents, produced as part of this project, which are available from this website:

  • Procedures Manual
    for the Management of Photoarchives Collections
    in the Museum of Natural History (51 KB HTML file)

    Guide to the Photoarchives
    of the Museum of Natural History (46 KB HTML file)

  • These manuals were produced as part of Picture This: Cataloguing and Conserving the Photoarchives of the Museum of Natural History, a project made possible with support from the Rhode Island Committee for the Humanities.
