Scope and Contents
From the Series:
When the Nightingale archives were first organized, it was impossible to discern where most photographs originated. Thus, they were placed into subject categories. As of at least the 2000s, most photographs taken at Nightingale originate in the communications department and are used in both print and electronic publications and social media. Thus, when it can be determined that communications was the creator of photographs, they will be catalogued in this series.
