Maps of the Unknown

Hannah Barnes’s watercolor class of Fall 2018 created maps of places that have never been mapped before. These stunning results are on display on Bracken 2 East in the windows of the GIS Research and Map Collection (BL 224) until February 2019. After they leave the windows, you can still find them in our Digital Media Repository (libx.bsu.edu).

Search original manuscripts, typescript papers, diaries, photographs, and advertisements documenting everyday life in Britain (1937-1967) with a database that is considered “one of the most important archives for the study of Social History in the Modern Era.”
