THE TOWN'S KEEPER · MUSEUM, MICROFILM, AND THE OMEKA LIBRARY
What it is: the town's memory institution, and unique among this build's archives in being simultaneously a source, a subject, and a building in another leg's story: the society's Walkerton Heritage Museum stands since 2023 in the former license-branch building at 302 Roosevelt Road, the gift of the Hiler family — so the BMV leg's closing fact is this archive's address. As a source the society works at three strengths: its Omeka digital library (the Walkerton Digital Library), whose item records the build cites for the museum succession and a scattering of dated photographs, at item-record strength; its newspaper microfilm — the Walkerton papers 1886–1996 and the North Liberty papers 1912–1962 — which is the fullest run of the town's press known to exist and the settler for every Independent item the digitized bands miss (a visit, not a download); and its own institutional voice (its site and postings), used for the society's facts at the strength any institution's self-description carries. One of its facts stands unresolved in the federal record: no exempt-organization register line for the society under its own name was located in these passes (the search returns, characteristically, the North Carolina namesake), and its federal state stands as GAP-W10-C3 with the Tax Exempt Organization Search by legal name as settler.
