[Genealib] high school yearbooks

[Patty O'Connor]

The Marysville Public Library has just finished a scanning project of the
Marysville High School yearbooks from 1936-2000 as part of the Photohio.org
project. They are accessible on our website at
http://www.marysvillelib.org/yearbook.htm. We found it less expensive to
outsource the actual scanning to Assured Microservices of Worthington, OH
and use ContentDM as our managing software. Funding was shared by the
library, the Union County Chapter of the Ohio Genealogical Society, and the
Union County Historical Society. Yearbooks that aren't in our collection
were loaned to us for scanning by the Marysville Alumni Association. The
school district granted copyright permission. The project has been a huge
hit.

I can take no credit for the project; my Reference Assistant, Sue Kienbaum,
did all the legwork.
