The Archival Chronicle is celebrating the 40th anniversary of Jerome Library. A special Gallery issue features library service through the years, with photographs highlighting facilities at the old library (now McFall Center) as well as at Jerome and the Ogg Science Library.

What was Bowling Green like at the beginning of the 20th century? The Wood County Democrat published a promotional section for downtown businesses in February of 1900. A review of the CAC’s collections provided near-contemporary photographs of many of the businesses and examples of their invoices and letterheads. Our online exhibit lets visitors stroll down Main Street to get a flavor of the times. As new photographs and information become available, they’ll be added to our site. Come often!
