“The Prints and Photographs Reading Room provides public access to the collections and services of the Prints and Photographs Division [of the Library of Congress]. Unique in their scope and richness, the Prints and Photographs collections today number over 13.6 million images. These include photographs, fine and popular prints and drawings, posters, and architectural and engineering drawings.” Unfortunately, it seems there are very few images online.

“The Internet contains numerous lists of information. Many of these lists present information in the form of rankings of different people, organizations, companies, etc. This collection is designed to be a clearinghouse for these types of resources. Hopefully, it will allow these useful tools to be located and accessed in a timely and efficient manner.”
