The University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV) Libraries is proud to announce
the launching of "Early Las Vegas," a digital exhibition using historical
photographs and research collections contained in the Special Collections
Department of the UNLV Libraries.

Based on best practices exemplified by the Denver Public Library, "Early
Las Vegas" is divided into four photographic galleries:  Early Las Vegas,
The Depot, The Cottages, and Now and Then.  Each of these galleries is
designed to simulate an actual gallery experience by having the user move
horizontally through the exhibit.  Each item in the gallery has been
cataloged in the machine readable cataloging (MARC) format.  Suitable
commentary and research related to the photographs is included in each
exhibit.  Additional galleries will be added in the future, as will further
research and commentary based on the historical items presented.

This digital exhibit was the result of a UNLV Planning Initiative Award
granted to the Head, Bibliographic and Metadata Services Department of the
UNLV Libraries, in collaboration with the UNLV Special Collections
Department and the UNLV Department of History.  This is the first project
developed by the UNLV Libraries Digital Projects personnel, and all
comments and suggestions are appreciated.

Users can access this exhibit at the following URL:
