Over 400 Springfield high school yearbooks have been donated for digitization

About a year ago, the public library in Springfield, Massachusetts solicited donations of yearbooks from the city’s high schools for a project to digitize these often-requested items.

The response was “tremendous,” according to the Springfield City Library.

This week, the collection, which is still building, was made available for free online viewing.

WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill spoke again with Elizabeth McKinstry, the librarian in charge of the project.

The record-setting tenure of Springfield Mayor Domenic Sarno. The 2011 tornado and its recovery that remade the largest city in Western Massachusetts. The fallout from the deadly COVID outbreak at the Holyoke Soldiers Home. Those are just a few of the thousands and thousands of stories WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill has covered for WAMC in his nearly 17 years with the station.
