Twenty-second Day

June 25

I scanned and edited the class of 1933. Being somewhat of a perfectionist, I also reedited the class of 1918.

This is my last update for this blog. I enjoyed my practicum. It has given me a real taste of what working in an archives is and I am up for working in one as a career.

Follow me over to my new blog, Building a Library.

Twentieth Day

June 22

I finished up editing 1924. I created the Master versions of the scans so I had to make copies for the User folder. I converted the copies of classes, 1918, 1922, 1923, 1931, and the unknown class year.

Sixteenth Day

June 15

I finished editing 1923. I couldn’t identify one student though. I looked for the 1923 yearbook and did not find it. I will search again when I go back.

I scanned all of the class of 1922 including the surviving names written in calligraphy.

Fifteenth Day

June 11

I created a folder and labeled it “Class of 1918” and placed it in the Master folder. I scanned the class of 1918 and identified the files using the names of the students. I used the format of Lastname_firstname_middleintitial_1918.tif.

I started scanning the class of 1923 and labeled the files the same way as the class of 1918.

Eleventh Day

June 4

The photographs from 1960 peeled off easily. It seems during the fifties and sixties the school used the Varden Studio for the class pictures. Some names from this year were: L. J. Sinatra, T. J. Kowalczyk, and C. H. Rozek.

Some names from the class of 1961 are: J. F. Karaszewski, D. R. Pfalzgraf, and L. M. Szczesny.

I also found the final composites from 1918 and 1922. They were a lot smaller than the mockups and they did not have any names.
