Abstract
A collection of yearbooks from Brooklyn schools.
Arrangement
The yearbooks are arranged alphabetically by school name. Each school's yearbooks are arranged chronologically on the shelf. The yearbooks' titles are noted, but do not affect the physical arrangement.
Scope and Contents
The Brooklyn Yearbook Collection spans over 100 years of Brooklyn educational history. In addition to the class listings and photographs that are useful in genealogical research, the yearbooks provide a wealth of information about academics, clubs, athletic groups, and student activities in Brooklyn in the 19th and 20th centuries. Many of the publications included in this collection are compendiums of student artwork and writing, with visually striking design and content. The collection is consistently growing due to active acquisitions and donations.
