New Images Posted to “Great Alaska Earthquake” Website


Archives and Special Collections at the UAA Consortium Library announces updates and additions to its Great Alaska Earthquake website:


5th Avenue in Anchorage after the March
1964 earthquake (uaa-hmc-0461-s6a-f1-51-
AE(a)-35-6)

The site now features over 600 images of the 1964 quake (available at the “Photos” tab). The virtual display features a geotag function that enables you to click on a point on a map to retrieve a photo from a precise location. Click on the “Map” tab near the top of the page to connect. The images are grouped by subject and location, and they can also be found by searching for key terms. The UAA Consortium Library plans to continuing uploading more images to the site.
