  • River Maps
    Map Library  ·   Digital Special Collections
    Description
    The importance of rivers to the state of Illinois cannot be underestimated. The entire state is in the Mississippi River’s drainage basin. Rivers have historically been core to the transportation of people and goods in and out of the state. Changes in river location have changed the shape of the state. For example, a nineteenth-century Mississippi River course change cut off Kaskaskia, the first state capital, from the rest of the state. The state song for Illinois acknowledges the importance of rivers in its first line: By thy rivers gently flowing, Illinois, Illinois. The rivers that bound and flow through Illinois are ever-changing, through both natural and man-made processes. The maps in this collection document some of those changes. Many of the maps, particularly those from the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries, are large-scale showing the river in great detail. Besides the maps included in this collection of materials, aerial photographs that include rivers in Illinois as well as of parts of the Mississippi, Ohio, and Wabash rivers on the state’s borders can be found in sets of photographs for Illinois counties in the Map Library. Indexes for these sets are available online through the Digital Collection Aerial Photographic Index Maps (https://go.library.illinois.edu/AirPhotoIndexMaps). Older, smaller-scale maps that include rivers of Illinois and the upper Midwest may be viewed in the Historical Maps Online collection (https://go.library.illinois.edu/HistoricalMapsOnline). Please contact the Map Library regarding these items via e-mail at charts@library.illinois.edu or by calling 217-333-0827.

    Description
    The Sousa Archives and Center for American Music (SACAM) acquires and preserves significant archival records and historical artifacts in multiple formats that document America's diverse music heritage. The Center’s collection of historical music instruments, dating between 1810-1972, include rare cornets and trumpets, early boxwood clarinets and flutes, unique double-reed sarrusophones, bassoons and Heckelphone, unusual harps and zithers, prototype electronic Hawaiian guitars and Sal Mar Construction, and Civil War era military horns. The Center’s music instruments complement its significant archival collections that document the lives and careers of such musicians and band leaders as John Philip Sousa, Herbert L. Clarke, Claude Gordon, as well as University of Illinois Band Directors A. Austin Harding, and Mark Hindsley. The instruments also document early technological developments associated with both European and American music instrument manufacturing by such important manufacturers as Frank Holton, F. Besson, C.G. Conn, Isaac Fiske, John F. Stratton, Graves & Co., A. G. Wright, and Christian R. Stark. The provenance of each instrument is identified in each set of images. Each instrument from the archive’s collections is being photographed from multiple viewpoints. In addition to high resolution still images of the fronts, backs, sides, tops, and bottoms of each instrument, fully accessible 3-dimensional digital models are being created for each of the instruments. These 3D images are highly interactive, allowing online users to move, rotate, turn, pan across, and zoom in and out of each model to more fully examine the intricate details of instrument. The Center’s ultimate long-term goal is to create digital sound files for each playable instrument and incorporate them into its music instrument digital library which will provide users with broadest multi-media educational experience using today’s online technologies.
  • Special Collections Conservation Treatment Documentation
    Preservation Services  ·   Digital Special Collections
    Description
    About Conservation Documentation The process of conservation documentation in the course of treatment is intrinsic to the ethical transmission of the conservator’s work. It records the state of an object before, during, and after the changes brought about by physical treatment. Through text and photographs, the documentation provides a chronicle of decisions made and actions taken. It is also meant to exist in perpetuity with the treated object as a critical archive of change in history over time. In a variety of written formats (checkboxes, database forms/fields, narrative text, or any combination of those three), conservators record the composition of an artifact, its changes over time including deterioration and damage from outside forces, proposed conservation treatment approaches and, after treatment, the final conservation treatment actions as completed. Alongside the written documentation are a series of photographs meant to document these steps, including various standardized shots taken before and after treatment, as well as images meant to highlight any unique features. In some instances, images may also be taken during treatment to document particular challenges, structural anomalies, or significant treatment steps. Historically, conservation treatment was kept on physical 35mm color slides and paper but has transitioned to digital images and files since the early 2000s for most institutions. In many institutions, conservation documentation is archived and preserved, but stored only in digital “dark storage” for access only by library staff when requested. By creating this publicly searchable collection, the Preservation Services Unit at the University of Illinois Library supports more open access to these important documents. Using this Collection This collection may be accessed in multiple ways. To view thumbnails of all items in the collection, or to search for individual items or treatment types, click on the button above that shows the total number of items in the collection. From here you may browse the collection or search in multiple ways. If you are interested in a particular book, you may search for individual titles by using the filter function to search for basic bibliographic information such as title, call number, publication date, etcetera. If you are interested in learning more about particular damage types or conservation repairs, you may use the lists at the left of the screen to choose single or multiple tags for areas such as treatment type, item format and structure, damage types, and/or materials and equipment used.
