Greetings The New York Public Library is delighted to be joining the Flickr Commons and to rub digital shoulders with the other illustrious institutions participating here. Flickr is among the most lively and innovative social media communities on the Web, with millions of users capturing and describing the photographic present. The Commons project brings a fresh infusion of material from the past, images spanning the entire history of photography carefully preserved and served up digitally by the world's leading libraries, archives and museums. We strongly believe that projects like Flickr Commons extend the NYPL's mission to spread knowledge and spur self-education, bringing us into contact with new publics, and engaging our existing users in a new environment.
