Background

Scope and content:

OC Stories collects images and videos pertaining to life in Orange County, California. It documents people, businesses, institutions, and events of historical significance in the diverse communities that make up Orange County.

Acquisition information:
OC Stories was created in 2013 through a Library Services and Technology (LSTA) grant awarded by the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services and administered by the California State Librarian. OC Stories built on an earlier digital image collection created in 2007 through a California Local History Digital Resources Project (LHDRP) grant. Since the creation of this original collection of library-owned images, OC Stories has grown to include thousands of digital images and videos which have been shared with OC Public Libraries by various Orange County organizations and individuals.
