Oakville Images

On Thursday, February 8, 2007 I attended the launch of Oakville Images at the Oakville Public Library celebrating Oakville's Heritage. This is an interactive site that allows you to view historical photos, videos, interviews of Oakville.

One of the Featured Sites Oakville at War allows you to send via e-mail an electronic postcard; click on World War I, Postcards, Image Details, Create electronic postcard.

Another neat feature was Oakville stereoviews under Featured collections on the Oakville Images page. I will put some 3-D glasses on my desk in Bibliographic Services along with some of the pamphlets I collected for anyone who would like to try this feature.

Here is a link to one of my favorite stereoviews
