About this Collection
    This project was supported in whole or in part by the U.S. Institute
of Museum and Library Services under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act, administered in California by the State Librarian. In addition, the City of Anaheim, the Anaheim Historical Society, Native Sons of the Golden West and Anaheim Public Library have provided additional funds for the creation of this digital archive of nearly 2,000 photographs of the City of Anaheim. 
    These unique local history resources have been organized for easy browsing by Anaheim residents, scholars, and history buffs throughout California and the world. The categories on this
web page are based on
the Anaheim City School District's local history curriculum for third grade classes.
