Digitization Projects: NYS Digital Collections--Gov't Publications Web Site

Digitization Projects: NYS Digital Collections--Gov't Publications Web Site

The following "how to" was written by ResourceShelf contributor and the editor of the amazing (a top labor news resource) IWS Documented News Service, Stuart Basefsky.

Unfortunately at this site, the links that are attached to a sequence or pathway (such as those in the original message) time out. Consequently to get to the material listed below, one has to do the following:
(1) Go to --
Excelsior: New York State Library/Archives/Museum Catalog

(2) Click on the button as the bottom entitled, SEARCH DIGITAL COLLECTIONS This should take you to a page on which the Third Button at the Top says, BROWSE

(3) Click on the BROWSE button. This will take you to a page where one of the collections listed will be NEW YORK STATE GOVERNMENT PUBLICATIONS.

(4) Click on NEW YORK STATE GOVERNMENT PUBLICATIONS

To reach specific documents like labor materials:
(5) Click on EXECUTIVE BRANCH
(6) Then click on LABOR
Following the same logic, one will find the material listed below.

(A) "New York State Government Publications" (including Regents exams from 1957 through the current year) which include
EXECUTIVE, JUDICIAL, and LEGISLATIVE DOCUMENTS and DATA.

(B) "New York State Library Scanned Documents Collection" (including scanned monographs and selected broadsides, maps, manuscripts, and scores from the Library's Manuscripts and Special Collections).
