University of Manitoba Historical Maps Collection

The University of Manitoba has digitized a wonderful collection of maps and images related to Manitoba history. Best of all, the images are easily searchable and sortable through a Flickr stream. See the maps.

We stopped by the University of Manitoba archives to talk with Larry Laliberte about his work on the project and the use of social media to share these important historical documents.
