University of Maryland Yearbooks Now Online!

The University of Maryland Libraries has digitized its yearbooks from 1897-1970 as part of its participation in Lyrasis’s Mass Digitization Collaborative.  The first issue of the yearbook, entitled Reveille, features a history of what was then known as the Maryland Agricultural College, and was over 130 pages in length.  The yearbook name changed to the Terrapin in 1935, and grew in size along with the campus. The 1970 edition of the yearbook was over 560 pages.  Each yearbook may be downloaded as an Adobe PDF file, or viewed online at the Internet Archive using their “Flip Book (beta)” option.  In addition, each yearbook may be searched individually for names and events.
