41 Volumes of the South Dakota Historical Collections are now online.

As the South Dakota Historical Society celebrates its 120th year, the South Dakota State Library has digitized all 41 volumes of the South Dakota Historical Collections. From 1902-1982, this series was published biennially by the department of History (now the South Dakota Historical Society) as part of its mission to collect, preserve and make accessible the history of the state.

These volumes cover a wide array of topics, and are a valuable resource for students, teachers and anyone interested in South Dakota history. Taken as a whole, the series represents an evolution in perspectives on the state’s history, heritage and culture.

The South Dakota State Library’s Digital Collections reflect the history and culture of South Dakota. Primarily of interest to librarians, researchers and genealogists, the digital collections include newspapers articles, South Dakota Library photographs, state government annual reports and research reports, SD Codified Laws, session Saws, House and Senate journals and more.
