I don’t remember if I first saw this on Prentiss’s blog or if I heard about it somewhere else more recently, but, like him, I just got an update e-mail from their mailing list notifying me that the Austin Past and Present project now has DVDs available on their website for $24.95 and also at Bookpeople, the store at City Hall and the Austin History Center.

It looks like a really great project. I’m not sure how much they’ve incorporated it into local libraries or schools yet. I’ll have to remember to ask the next time I’m in my local branch library and when the kids go back to school in the fall. I may just go ahead and pick up a copy to have at home. If I do, I’ll be sure to post a review here.
