Austin History Center (AHC) Digital Collections provides thousands of digitized items from the AHC archives, with more added each week.

AHC Digital Collections is a repository for the preservation and public access of digitized and born-digital historical artifacts from the History Center’s collections.

The first collections published include thousands of historic photos documenting people, places, and events that have shaped Austin’s history. Existing digital objects and newly digitized collections are being added weekly and will include archival documents, oral history recordings, videos, maps, and additional photographs.

Users can keyword search across all collections or browse the digital collections by material type or collecting units.
