Massachusetts Atlases Now Available Online!


The State Library has completed the digitization of the majority of its Massachusetts real estate atlas collection. These materials are now available online  in PDF form and with individual page images (jpgs) via its Flickr site.


The digitized collection of atlases includes 167 volumes with over 6,000 maps and other illustrations. They include statewide, county and municipal atlases from throughout the commonwealth, with the majority published in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

This project is supported by the Institute of Museum and Library Services under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act as administered by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners.
