The Archives and Special Collections is currently in the middle of a mass digitization project, which is being funded by the National Archives. The goal of the project is to make all of the approximately 36,000 images in the Lowell Thomas Papers available on the Internet. Several thousand images are currently available via the finding aid for the collection and on IBM’s Content Manager database.
