Book Images Collection from the Internet Archive

This post was originally published on December 11, 2014. 

Sometimes you just need some eye candy, amiright? So today we’re pointing you to a fabulous Flickr collection of book images posted by the reliably-awesome Internet Archive. The Internet Archive has so much in their collection that finding an access point can be a tad overwhelming. Luckily they do a great job making the wealth of images and materials in their collection available via Flickr, so if you’re an image junkie like so many members of our community, this is the collection for you!

Props must be given to Bryan Voell, artist and librarian for Johnson County Library in Kansas, for pointing us to this wonderful resource. Enjoy! ~ Laura
