The drawings above and below this week's archive progress report are from a rare book in the Library's collection titled The Elements of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, published in 1898.

As we continue processing the Architectural Drawing Collection, our rare book collection reminds us that not only are we creating more research resources for our students, preserving important parts of Georgia's history, and caring for Special Collections, but we are also helping to preserve the history of the professions that created these documents.
