Digital Collections

In 2015, WRHS launched its own digital repository to manage and present digital assets. Prior to this development, WRHS partnered with Kelvin Smith Library of Case Western Reserve University to present images from the WRHS collections on Digital Case, a digital archive of research resources maintained by the University as part of a cooperative memorandum of understanding between the two entities.
