Title

Elsie Venner Bartlett Scrapbooks

Subject

History of residents of the Town of Worthington and of town affairs.

Description

These scrapbooks consist of newspaper clippings largely from the Hampshire Gazette and Springfield Republican newspapers taken by Ms. Bartlett over the approximate period 1927 - 1960. As the scrapbooks are scanned and optically character recognized, additional scrapbooks will be added to the collection. There are several scrapbooks in the archive that have not been digitized; those are not members of this collection.
Some of these items are bound books and others loose-leaf binders. Loose-leaf binders are scanned with a professional flat bed scanner with the result that optical character recognition is of reasonable accuracy. Books are scanned photographically with the result that optical character recognition is less accurate.
