One nice thing about working with the collections at the Nebraska State Historical Society is that I never know what is going to walk through the door or show up on my desk. We are always adding new items to our collections. Here are just a few examples of items recently acquired for the collections:
This 1899 commencement program will be added to our Cotner College collection (NSHS RG4065.AM).
Informational card showing Lincoln's City Hall building (NSHS County Files)
Interior of Lincoln City Hall information card giving history of the building (NSHS County Files).
This 1902-1903 student handbook from the Nebraska State Normal School will be added to our Peru State College collection (RG0029).
Interior page of the student handbook showing advertisements, the school yell, etc. (NSHS RG0029)
For more information about any of these items or collections, or if you have something you are interested in donating, please contact the Library/Archives Division.
