Tag LOC Historical Photos
As many of you may have heard, The Library of Congress has partnered with Flickr to display their historical photo collections in a social environment. They have uploaded two sets of photos with over 1,500 images each and have invited Flickr users to help describe them by assigning tags to photos. Users can also place comments on the images. The collections include “News in the 1910s” – a collection consisting of sporting events, crime, politics, and entertainment news photos, and “1930s-40s in Color” including photos of farming, factory life, railroads, and women working from 1939-1944. Check them out and add some tags!
