A new link on Databases A-Z will lead you to Flickr Commons. The key goal of The Commons is to share
hidden treasures from the world’s public photography archives. Recently The British Library has added over a million images onto Flickr Commons for anyone to use, remix and
repurpose. These images were taken from the pages of 17th, 18th and 19th
century books digitised by Microsoft . The images cover a wide range of subjects: There are maps, geological
diagrams, illustrations some beautiful or very colourful, comical satire, illuminated and decorative
letters, landscapes, wall-paintings and more.
Something to explore over the Christmas break…
