New NARA FEMA Resource Online

The National Archives and Records Administration has recently made available over 8,000 digital images relating to disasters and emergency management programs. Wim Henderson took the photograph above on 5 October 2005 in order to record Hurricane Rita wind damage at Holly Beach, Louisiana.

To search the photographs, go to NARA’s Online Public Access search page at
http://research.archives.gov/search?v%3Aproject=opa&query=626166
Researchers may browse the photographs by clicking the link that reads “View all Online Holdings” in the top right corner of the search results. For more refined searching, key words may be entered into the search box at the top of the page.
