"The Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh has opened a digital archive that will let Internet users worldwide view more than a half million pages of historical documents about the city's iron and steel heritage.
"The library's Pittsburgh Iron and Steel Heritage Collection -- now online at About Iron & Steel Collection, Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh -- contains more than 500,000 pages, including excerpts from books, newspaper articles, maps, journals, photographs, illustrations and trade catalogs. The pages, preserved with microfilm, date back as far as the 1800s, and give viewers a glimpse into the lives of industry tycoons like Andrew Carnegie, Henry Clay Frick, Andrew W. Mellon and Charles M. Schwab."
"Library staff members are using Facebook, blogs and other media to spread the word about the new feature, which they have worked on creating for three years. The documents are preserved in microfilm."
