Bill Kibbel Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 The Association for Preservation Technology International (APT) has launched the Building Technology Heritage Library. This is a collection of pre-1964 architectural trade catalogs, house plan books and technical building guides, digitized for viewing on the web. The collection is an excellent primary source of past building designs, building products and construction practices. The collection is searchable or you can browse by subject and keywords.

Jim Katen Posted February 25, 2012 Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 Fascinating collection. However, as large as it is, it seems like it's just scratching the surface. I presume that there are plans to enlarge it over time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
