This collection contains samples from the ALA archives at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Items in this collection are drawn from two smaller collections: 1) The F. W. Faxon Photographs Collection, which consists mainly of group pictures of librarians attending the ALA conferences in U.S. and Canada, covering the period of 1894-1932, with the exception of 1896. The collection includes the Two War-Time Conferences photographs. All photographs in this collection were taken by F. W. Faxon. This photographs collection is part of a larger collection of Conference Photographs; and 2) The Library Building Photographs Collection contains pictures of library buildings in photographic papers and postcards. Some of the pictures are in the form of paintings and other kinds of artist-rendering arts. Some postcards were from F. W. Faxon collection. Each postcard is comprised of two images, the front and back.
