Photos from the library's collection...

The Indiana Room at the library currently houses a few photographs of historic Greensburg that have been donated over the years. Since this is such a small collection, we've decided to give the photos to the Decatur County Historical Society. Before we part with them, though, we wanted to scan them and make them available to a wider audience. Please leave a comment or contact us if you have any additional information about these photos!
