Blue Mountains Library - Local Studies' photostream  

About
Hi, I'm John Merriman, the Local Studies Librarian at Blue Mountains City Library, based at Springwood in New South Wales, Australia. Contact me at : jmerriman@bmcc.nsw.gov.au

Here you will find selected high resolution images from our collection. Images which we think are useful, interesting, quirky, historically significant, posses artistic merit, or we just want to know more about.

Please feel free to comment and add more information if you wish. If you make an enquiry or comment on an image, we do ask, as a matter or courtesy, that you identify yourself and provide a profile or an email address so we can respond; otherwise you may wish to contact the Library direct with your enquiry.

As far as we know, the majority of these images are not copyright and are available for non-commercial use with attribution to the library.

For any images used with the owner's permsission and subject to copyright or where copyright is unclear, we have used the label "copyright reserved". Please respect this.

In some cases we have named an owner who has donated the images, please do likewise if you use them. In all cases we ask that you respect the intellectual property of the photographer if known.

A larger image collection is available at the main library web site shown on this page.
