Virtual artifacts can consist of pictures of any of the following:
·         Card catalogs
·         Due date stamps
·         Promotional items like buttons, pencils, ribbons
·         Posters
·         Borrower cards
·         Overdue notices
·         Other librariana

Please send pictures along with captions detailing, if possible, the name of the item, the approximate age, library where the item was found, and any other relevant or interesting facts to lhrtnewsandnotes at gmail.com<mailto:lhrtnewsandnotes at gmail.com>

Nearly any format for the pictures (JPG, PGN, PDF) will work.  Thank you for helping us virtually preserve treasures of library history!
