Highlights from SAHARA: Institutions of Learning
Sep 12, 2016
by
Jacqueline Spafford and Jeffrey Klee, SAHARA Co-Editors
As many of us begin our busy fall season at universities, colleges, archives and libraries, and our children head back to school, we would like to highlight the diverse images of buildings related to education in SAHARA. The collection includes new and old architecture, re-purposed buildings, and buildings in ruin, from rural to urban settings—below is a small selection. Thank you to all the contributors who added content in this area.
Thanks to recent software updates from Artstor, we now have a much more efficient search system. You can start with a broad search, e.g. ‘Mexico’ and then drill down using search filters.
We also want to celebrate the fact that we now have more than 100,000 contributions to SAHARA! Thank you to all the SAH members who have contributed.
