Digital Photo Collection
Our digital photograph collection began in 2005 with a grant entitled Arizona in the 1930s. These funds were granted by the Arizona State Library, Archives, and Public Records Agency under the Library Services and Technology Act, which is administered by the Institute of Museum and Library Services.

The Library has received further grant funding in order to build upon this first digitization project. We are currently focusing specifically on Scottsdale history and longtime civic organizations that have been instrumental to Scottsdale's development as a world-class destination.

You will also find the photos in the Arizona Memory Project, a database of cultural institutions throughout the state.
