    About Postcard Tag

    Numbering more than 2 million items, the Newberry Library's postcard collection is one of the largest in the United States. As we move the collection online, please help scholars, genealogists, and other researchers search and browse the content by adding subject tags and transcribing text. Your work will be used to enhance metadata records for the publicly-accessible Newberry Postcards digital collection. Read more here about the project and the postcards you can work on.
