Welcome to The Danish
American Archive and Library web site. Located in Blair, Nebraska, The
Archive contains the country’s largest and broadest
collection of materials relating to the life experience,
cultural heritage and vital contributions to North
America of the people of Danish extraction.
Our collection, consisting
of approximately 1,000 cubic feet of unpublished written
materials, recordings and photographs plus more than
10,000 books, starts with some of America’s earliest
Danish immigrants and continues through present day
Danish Americans. Through our holdings a picture
emerges of how people of Danish descent came to America
and established themselves and of their enormous
contributions to the fabric of American life. So
come join us, online or in person, and enjoy the Danish
American experience! |
