Historic Photos -Online and Hardcopy Available Now

Lake Macquarie City Library is continually collecting photographs and stories from staff and residents with the aim of providing a tangible point of reference to anyone with an interest in the history of the local area. Currently we have more than 6000 historical photographs, the digital versions can be accessed at anytime by following this link:

If you believe the descriptions accompanying the photographs are either incorrect or incomplete, please do not hesitate to contact us. You can even take this one step further and perhaps consider directly adding a 'tag' or subject heading to the description. The library can also supply reproductions of photographs at a resolution of 300 ppi per image, the cost being $10 per image for individuals, higher for commerical interests.
