Brown v. Board of Education Archive

In Fall 2003, a project was begun to scan and digitize documents and photographs from a variety of sources including the Library of Congress, the Charlotte Observer newspaper, and the Ann Arbor Public Schools. The goal of this project was to obtain materials of a scholarly nature in support of the Winter 2004 LSA Theme Semester, "Fulfilling the Promise of Brown," Ann Arbor-Ypsilanti Reads, and the 50th anniversary of the landmark court decision known as Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, 347 U.S. 483 (1954). Charles Ransom, Diversity Librarian, was responsible for the selection of materials included in this exhibit.
