 Early
Omaha: Gateway to the West
Collection of books, original materials, maps
and images relating to the history of Omaha, documenting the process of Omaha
transforming from a town into a city by being a "gateway" to the west.
As a participant in the Western Trails Digitization Project, Omaha Public Library
digitized more than 750 photos, postcards, stereoviews, slides and maps.
 The
Trans-Mississippi & International Exposition of 1898 consists primarily of the
Frank
Rinehart official photographs of the exposition. The library owns about 3,000 of these rare
original images,
as well as other narrative and descriptive materials about the Exposition's events, exhibits,
Midway attractions, and Indian Congress.
 Nebraska Memories
is a cooperative project to digitize Nebraska-related historical and cultural heritage materials
and make them available to researchers of all ages via the Internet. Nebraska Memories is
brought to you by the Nebraska Library Commission.
