Yearbooks in the Dayton Collection

Did you know that the Dayton Metro Library’s Local History Room collects school yearbooks from all over Montgomery County for our Dayton Collection?

We have over 200 yearbooks from area elementary, middle, and high schools, as well as some university yearbooks, spanning the years from 1909 to 2005. (Roosevelt High School is pictured above, click for larger image.)

You can view these yearbooks by coming to the Dayton Local History Room on the lower level of the Main Library. Before you come in, you may want to check first to see whether we have the yearbook you want. You can check our online list of yearbooks available. (You can also access this list by visiting the Dayton Metro Library’s web site and clicking on Reference Desk, then Local History, then Yearbooks Index.)

We acquire these yearbooks mainly through donation, so please keep the Dayton Metro Library in mind if you have any Montgomery County school yearbooks that you no longer want.
