About Iowa County Histories Collection

The histories of Iowa’s 99 counties contribute to the broader understanding of local, state, and national history. This collection includes digitized versions of published county histories from the 19th century as well as histories compiled in the 1940s by the Iowa Writers’ Program of the Work Projects Administration (formerly the Works Progress Administration).

Accessibility information

The Iowa State University Library is committed to providing access to its digital content. Certain material, particularly older materials, handwritten documents, and visual content, present unique challenges in providing fully accessible resources. If you are experiencing barriers to accessing, viewing, or navigating the Digital Collections site please contact us for assistance or to request additional formats.
