The Bancroft Library - New Digital Collections



The Bancroft Library  (http://bancroft.berkeley.edu/) is pleased to
announce the addition of two new digital collections to its website:


The Meiklejohn Civil Liberties Institute Archives include the best legal
"briefs," transcripts, and motions in cases reported in the Civil Liberties
Docket since 1955. For the law profession, these materials served as a
major resource for lawyers involved in civil liberties cases anywhere in
the United States. The Archives, originally a component of the Meiklejohn
Civil Liberties Library, builds upon the pioneering work of attorney and
civil rights activist Ann Fagan Ginger.

The Cased Photographs Project of The Bancroft Library makes available
digital images and detailed descriptions of daguerreotypes, ambrotypes,
tintypes, and related photographs in the collections of The Bancroft
Library and the California State Library. The main goals of this project
are to preserve and to provide access to these exceedingly rare and
significant pictorial documents, many of which date from the era of the
California gold rush.
