SLU Libraries Digital Collections Flickr

You can help the Digitization Center solve a mystery! In an effort to make our digital collections more easily available, Saint Louis University Libraries now has a Flickr account. Our first set of images on Flickr is a series of different photographs from the 1940s to the 1980s. All these images are from the Saint Louis University Libraries Special Collections, and all of them have unidentified people and events in them. We need your help identifying these photos; if you have any information, please let us know in the comments section. Each time someone helps us identify a photo, we will update the description and credit the person who helped us!
