State Ed. Dept. glass slides

Play around with the glass slides, the projectors. Learn more about them and how they were used. Here's a state archives page with some basic history. Could be material for blog postings, displays, do a little slideshow for the staff sometime...

Think about whether need to keep all the slides. The ones of artworks seem iffy - but many of the others are unique, in that they depict places and people long gone. Don't be too quick though - we might be able to sell the slides, and I see projectors on ebay for anywhere from $200 - 400.

Here are some sites with more info on these "magic lanterns."

• Magic Lantern Society
• Magic Lantern EU

Betty Evershed '46 Scrapbook

Look some more for info on her, from her career after Brockport. Call more of the Eversheds in Rochester where she was from. Scan the book, or have Candace do it. It could be a nice add to the archives web pages, as well as furnishing material for the archives blog.
