Announcement: Pratt Institute Libraries now on Flickr!

The Pratt Institute Libraries are pleased to announce the launch
of our Flickr digital image collections, comprised of over 1,600 images
from our Archives and Special Collections. Digitized in 2005 and 2006
through the assistance of grants from the Metropolitan New York Library
Council, these images have been added to Flickr for increased visibility
and research access, and have already garnered over 25,000 views during
the collection-building phase in March and April 2009.

Images currently include historic photographs of Pratt Institute from its
inception through the 1980s, selections from our collection of pochoir
fashion plates from La Gazette du Bon Ton, and our entire collection of
over 1,300 early twentieth-century bookplates.
