Notable digitization efforts over the years include the Felland Glass Negatives Collection, Northfield Panorama Collection, Northfield Postcard Collection, and the upcoming digitization of the F.

Jillian Sparks, Distinctive Collections Engagement Librarian, works with faculty to offer classes that introduce students to our materials and primary source research. Students often use the collections in digital assignments or as inspiration for their creative work. We are excited to preserve some of these assignments in our archives.<\/p>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/article>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n<!-- end-migrated-from-panel-builder --><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>St. Olaf College Archives Mission Effective Date: 07-26-2022 Issuing Authority: Chief Information Officer, Libraries and IT Program Coordinator: Lead Archivist Last Updated: 07-26-2022 We provide access to our collections by [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8081,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2150","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/archives\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2150","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/archives\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/archives\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/archives\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8081"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/archives\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2150"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/archives\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2150\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2359,"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/archives\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2150\/revisions\/2359"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/archives\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2150"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
