The talented staff members at the Boston College University Libraries have created a veritable bevy of wonderful digital collections. They cover topics like the urban infrastructure of Boston to this one on the vast brocade of liturgical objects. Here visitors can make their way through over 1,100 images related to the Catholic faith, including decorative pins, robes, candlesticks, and other items. Items in the collection can be viewed via the Digitool Viewer (which is automatically embedded), and users can zoom in and out to get a closer look at each item. New users shouldn't miss the "Apparition at Knock" pin or the decorative "Angel holy water fonts." Some of the more curious items here include automobile crucifixes. [KMG]
