The HBCU Photographic Preservation Project has been a success! The entire photograph collection has been rehoused. This means that all our prints, slides, and negatives have been put into archival plastic and paper sleeves and folders.
We have also done a complete inventory of the collection. However, much of the collection had lost its original order and identifying information. We need your help with naming people, places, and dates depicted in our collection!
The photograph above, depicting unidentified students in a classroom, is part of a collection of images crated by Jennifer A. Ferretti for an exhibition at the Maryland Historical Society. For more information see the link below.
We are participants in the HBCU Library Alliance Digital Collections. You may view those materials online: Bowie State University Historical Images Collection .
