Marshall Public Library was founded in 1916 and has a proud history of serving our community. We are honored to be the go-to place for resources for the history of our community including a robust genealogy collection, thousands of historic photographs, and a one-of-a-kind oral history collection. Many of our collections can be found on the Illinois Digital Archive at idaillinois.org

This collection is a work in progress.

Photo titles, details, and dates will be updated as staff time allows.

If you have any questions, please email Head Librarian Jamie Poorman at jpoorman@marshallplib.com

This means that this institution is not aware of any current copyright restrictions on the images, usually because our institution owns the copyright, the term of copyright may have expired without being renewed, or because no evidence has been found that copyright restrictions apply.

[When reusing the images, we appreciate that you give us as the original source and link back to the Flickr Commons to help spread the word of this treasure trove of historical images and to encourage their reuse.]

[The user of the images must understand that the institution cannot guarantee that your private use of the images on The Commons will not violate the rights of unidentified copyright holders, and the institution cannot be responsible for any liability resulting from your use of these images.]
