About the Collection
In 2003 the Penn State University Libraries and its Pennsylvania Statewide Resource Center partners – Commonwealth Libraries of Pennsylvania, The Free Library of Philadelphia, and the Carnegie Public Library of Pittsburgh- launched this collaborative online collection of published books “on or about” Pennsylvania. The Penn State University Libraries contributed 641 titles digitized from its Pennsylvania History on Microfilm collection. The Commonwealth Library’s extensive collection of Civil War Regimental histories was also added and made available for open public access. Other titles found in this online collection are Pennsylvania county histories and travel log books.
