As part of the Butte Digital Image Project, staff at the library have been digitizing historic documents, books, and images of Butte, Montana and the surrounding area. They are available online through the library catalog, through the Montana Memory Project and on Flickr in the Butte-Silver Bow Public Library Photostream and image sets.
Featured here are images of mining in Butte, most from around 1900. You can click directly on any of them to get detailed information about the images and the books they have come from.
Among Montana’s most enduring legacies are the names assigned to its geographic features and places found on the state map.
As long as humans have inhabited Montana, they have named places. And Montana place names are as varied as its terrain.
“The Montana Place Names Companion” is now freely available via the Internet at: http://mtplacenames.org.
“The Montana Place Names Companion” is the online application based on the book, Montana Place Names from Alzada to Zortman (you can check it out from the library too), which was recently published by the Montana Historical Society Press.
