African American Women in Iowa Collection
Description
An account of the resource
Historian Darlene Clark Hine said: "There is an urgent need to discover and collect more primary source materials pertaining to the lives and experiences of ordinary middle western Black women in both rural and urban communities." Although Hine and her colleagues centered their efforts on African-American women in Illinois, Indiana, and Michigan -- states which traditionally have had more sizable black populations than Iowa -- the history of African-American women in this state is no less important. Indeed, Iowa's African women share a collective history that is both precious and powerful but all too seldom explored. --Kathryn M. Neal, from Giving Our History a Home: The African-American Women in Iowa Project.

Description
An account of the resource
Shirt sewn with stamped catalog cards.
I've always liked paper-the feel of it and the sound of it. I recall fashioning "garments" out of the thin, brown, crunchy-sounding paper my father's dry cleaning came back in when I was a little girl. I wrapped myself up in this paper with the help of some tape and traveled to the land of imagination…. When card catalogs became obsolete, it saddened me. First of all, I always thought the cabinets themselves looked good. Most important, however, was now I could never root around in all those lovely pasteboard cards - finding what I was looking for and often discovering things I hadn't been looking for. I'm used to electronic retrieval systems, but they lack the snug, comfortable friendliness of the old cards. Thanks for a chance to relate to old acquaintances again.

Title
A name given to the resource
Iowa City Town and Campus Scenes
Description
An account of the resource
The Iowa City Town and Campus Scenes Collection contains work by the two photographers who were primary in capturing the history of the Iowa City area for over a century. Samuel Calvin, Professor of Natural Sciences at the University of Iowa (1873-1911) exhibited important geological features both in and outside of Iowa with his glass plate camera, but his photographs of Iowa City and the University of Iowa campus show its history in beautiful detail. Frederick Wallace Kent followed as lecturer and instructor in photography at the University beginning in 1923, and later founded the University Photo Service in 1947. Kent captured not only university life such as sports and graduation in detail, but also photographed commercial and residential buildings off-campus in Iowa City, both from the ground and above. Together, these two photograph collections are an invaluable pictoral piece of Iowa City history.
