A Bit of the Real Cowtown
-
Description
-
Article spotlights a large of collection of documents, blueprints, and other materials pertaining to the old Kansas City Stockyards that is currently being processed by the Missouri Valley Special Collections department of the Kansas City Public Library. The documents were donated to the Library in 2008 by Bill Haw, owner of the Livestock Exchange Building, who first discovered them when he purchased the building in 1991. A preliminary inventory of the collection was funded by Henry Marder, of Mission, KS, and a grant by the Council on Library and Information Services is funding a project archivist to catalog and preserve the materials. Some of the items are currently on display at the Central Library in an exhibit titled "Cowtown: History of the Kansas City Stockyards."
