    Hi, I am looking for ideas on locating a picture of my grandmother and great aunt who graduated from Trenton Normal School which is now the College of New Jersey. I have contacted the alumni association but wonder if anyone else has any ideas. Thanks. Hille

    The school library will have copies of the old yearbooks. With todays digital technology you should be able to scan and reprint any photo you find. Good luck.

    Many older colleges will have college archives, which may be attached to the library or may be a separate function of the school administration with its own archivist. I would ask the reference librarian if there is a school archive that is available to the public.

    Hope this helps,

    The pictures arrived

    Hello, Glad to let all know I received pictures of my grandmother and great aunt on Thursday. The librarian kindly copied them from the yearbook. I already have had them enlarged and will put them with my daughters picture in June when she receives her education certificate from the College of New Jersey. Hille
