Using ArcGIS Story Maps to tell the story of one of the special collections at Inverness Library in an innovative, accessible, and exciting way.  This project focuses on a few aspects of the Fraser-Mackintosh (1828-1901) library story and a few of the books/pamphlets from the 5,000-strong collection, now in Inverness Public Library, looked after by High Life Highland. It showcases the local Inverness area, and the collection itself as a tourist destination.
