Old State of Iowa Transportation Maps

Posted by Brian on Thursday, Jun 12, 2014

Map

Last week, a patron asked if we had old Iowa road maps.  Specifically, one from 1957.  I wasn't sure.  So, I did what I usually do, and did a quick search online.  Luckily, the State Library of Iowa has PDFs available online of  Iowa Transportation Maps going back to 1952.  I thought it was cool to go back and look at how much the roads have changed.  You can check them out here:  http://publications.iowa.gov/view/subjects/VJ.html

  • Every heart a doorway

    by Seanan McGuire

    SCIENCE FICTION Mcguire Seanan
    Fantasy

    Eleanor West's Home for Wayward Children No Solicitations No Visitors No Quests Children have always disappeared under the right conditions; slipping through the shadows under a bed or at the back of a wardrobe, tumbling down rabbit holes and into old wells, and emerging somewhere... else. But magical lands have little need for used-up miracle children. Nancy tumbled once, but now she's back. The things she's experienced... they change a person. The children under Miss West's care understand all too well. And each of them is seeking a way back to their own fantasy world. But Nancy's arrival marks a change at the Home. There's a darkness just around each corner, and when tragedy strikes, it's up to Nancy and her new-found schoolmates to get to the heart of things. No matter the cost.
