Using the Website

The lantern slides can be browsed individually, within the sub-collections, by location, digital exhibitions, tags, or by using the search tool. For each lantern slide there are images that represent four different views of the object, including front and back, the photographic image it contains, and the slide edge with the label. Our content can also be searched using DigitalNZ.
