Located on the peaceful shores of Green Bay, Marinette County is tucked away in the reaches of northeast Wisconsin. It has been an outdoors destination for well over a century, and the area's history is celebrated and documented in this University of Wisconsin digital collection. The collection was created in collaboration with the Marinette County Library System, and it contains high school yearbooks, a pocket map of the county from 1920, and a standard atlas from 1912. To get a flavor of the community's past, visitors should peruse the pages of the 1924 yearbook, titled "Memories". As with the other collections from the University of Wisconsin, all of the items can be searched and there's a digital zoom feature that makes looking into the landscape of Marinette County's byways and highways a snap.
