                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>In August of 1978, after heavy rains, numerous holes and metal pieces started to appear in the disintegrating clay cap over the former Love Canal, Niagara Falls, New York.  The image presents a close-up view of contaminated ground showing a partially buried, deteriorated barrel with visible rust and cracks. The surrounding soil appears discolored and uneven, suggesting chemical leakage; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.&#13;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>In 1978, after heavy rains, numerous holes and metal pieces started to appear in the disintegrating clay cap over the former Love Canal, Niagara Falls, New York.  In this image, a corroded, broken barrel lies embedded in muddy ground. The barrel’s metal edges are jagged and rusted, and water fills the cavity inside. The surrounding soil is stained and scattered with reddish debris; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Each house has a backyard, many with above-ground swimming pools. In the middle of the neighborhood, there is an open, barren area of land with sparse vegetation and exposed soil. Toxic wastes are buried in the stretch of land between the rows of houses; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>Model City was a city proposed by original Love Canal developer William T.  Love in the late 19th century to be built outside Niagara Falls, New York.   As a part of the plan for the Model City a canal was to be dug from the upper Niagara River to Lewiston, New York which was seven miles downriver.  The image depicts a vintage map highlighting the “Site of Model City” in the Niagara region near the U.S.-Canada border. The map shows surrounding towns, railroads, and rivers, including Niagara Falls, Youngstown, and the Niagara River. Key infrastructure such as the New York Central Railroad and hydro power lines are also marked; photographed by Penelope Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
