Museum teams publish historical photo database with roughly 30,000 images
Bryce Lemelle highlighted a Friends of the California Archives feature of the department's historical-photo database and said the uploaded collection includes "approximately 30,000 photos." He described the site as a comprehensive public-facing database with images and contextual notes that many residents have not seen before.

Bryce said museum staff also plan to add artifacts and cultural items to the online catalog in coming weeks; he noted a new category highlighting the Chinese community in El Dorado County and encouraged commissioners to review items and provide input on curation. The Friends group and the site's webmaster were credited for helping secure and present the platform.
