Alice B. Donahue Library and Archives Collection
This collection makes available historical photographs, audio recordings, and a few textual records from the Town of Athabasca and area. Each item includes the date, if available, and a brief description of the people, places, and items recorded.
This online collection is a collaboration between the Athabasca University Library and Alice B. Donahue Library and Archives (ABDLA). Through the years, Athabasca University and archivists from ABDLA have worked to ensure the collection in the town archives is available online. In fact, part of the Athabasca Archives collection has been described on the Archives Society of Alberta (ASA) database. Eventually, the entire collection will be available online (www.archivesalberta.org).
