Leodis: A Photographic Archive of Leeds
Leodis is an online photographic archive containing over 52,000 images of Leeds, old and new and is managed by Leeds Library and Information Service.
The Local Studies Library in Leeds has a huge collection of photographs relating to the city. Before the Leodis site was set up these were only accessible by visiting the library and searching card indexes. The Library service was keen to promote the collections and make them more easily accessible for a wider audience. The Council Internet team initially added some photographs to the Leeds City Council site to gauge demand. The high level of interest led to the creation of the Leodis site.
Also featues a large number of pictures on Leeds United and related personalities. (Type "Leeds United" into the search terms box, or browse by decade or location). A superb resource, many of the pictures have detailed descriptions, and user comments. You can also enter your own comments/recollections.
