I've been pulling together some of my related blog posts and other materials into lists. So far I've done "Film Actresses from Alabama Before 1960" and "Medical History in Birmingham". This post is the third in the series.

Three Generations in One Library [UAB's Sterne Library] 






Alabama's First Library, Books & Printing  







Alabama Libraries in 1851 






Some Unexpected Libraries in Birmingham

Alabama Library History: A Call for Traveling Libraries in 1898 







My Alabama Library History board on Pinterest 







Two Early Medical Libraries in Birmingham 






UAB's Anesthesiology Library 1980-2015 




Carnegie Libraries in Alabama 






Alabama Libraries Before 1920: A Chronology in Progress
