Online Photography Collections

I had caught misreading an article, thinking that a major museum in Cleveland was uploading its photography collection onto the web. But that got me wondering about what collections might be available for online views. I did some searching, and here are some suggestions:

• New York Public Library - The institution offers a number of online exhibitions.


• NOAA Photo Library - The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has 10,000 environmental photos.


• George Eastman House - The foundation of teh photographic pioneer (Does the name Kodak ring a bell?) has a growing collection from its extensive holdings.


• Museum of Modern Art in New York - MoMA has online exhibitions and projects.


• US Geological Survey - Natural history and earth science images.


• Smithsonian Institution - Browse selected images, download screen resolution versions, and send e-cards.


• Library of Congress American Memory - Collections of teh LOC.
