Urban Archives

Yesterday, July 15th 2010. Me and a few group memebers took a tour of the Urban Archives located in the library building of temple. There we found interesting facts on community gardens and different sections of our home town dating back to the 1900's. I personally found the Urban Archives very interesting because of the several different subjects and topics I could find information on. There were over 7 million files to research topics from. There were actual articles and pictures from The Bullentin News Paper. You could see the discoloration of the news letter from aging. Which also meant that it was more delicate and had to be handled with care, Otherwise it will easily tear. I enjoyed my experience at The Urban Archives, and would like to go back sometimes to research a topic of choice.
