Oklahoma Correctional Institute began their Digital Imaging Service in 2012. Traverse
Area District Library was contacted to see if they would be willing to send their physical
copies of high school yearbooks from their region to be digitized. The service was
offered for free. After checking on security and safety issues, Traverse Area District
Library greenlighted the project. The archivist at the time, Amy Barritt, was tasked with
ensuring the yearbooks were safely delivered and retrieved, and with ensuring that the
digital copies received were of preservation quality. The end product was excellent. The
TIFF files received were then given to an in-house volunteer of the Library, who
converted the images into PDF, providing a copy that better met users' needs. The PDF
copies are available for download at localhistory.tadl.org. Currently, only yearbooks
published from 1900-1940 are available online. This date was set by the Library for
personal security reasons, as much of the same information in the yearbooks can be
found in federal census records, and the most recent available census is 1940.

The collection contains 106 compact discs. Many of the discs have multiple volumes of
