look at our digital collection!
This digital collection consists of 20 full-text, digitized children's books. The books were selected using the following criteria: publication date, rarity, uniqueness, size, and location of publication. All of the items in the digital collection were published before 1923, and are in the public domain. The oldest book in the digital collection, Dolly's ABC was published in 1854. Many of the items in the digital collection are quite rare, with only a few other holdings available. Each of the books selected represent a part of the Historical Collection, although not all. Plans are to expand it in 2008. The digital collection consists of very short picture books, as well as longer instructional teacher's manuals, such as Teaching Boys and Girls How to Study, by Peter Jeremiah Zimmers. Some of the books included in the collection were published within Wisconsin. Come and Sing: A Book of Songs, was published around 1910 by the Milwaukee State Teacher's College.
