Lake County Public Library has a huge collection of yearbooks from all of the high schools in our district - some dating back to 1908! We're finally putting our historic yearbooks online for anyone to flip through.
This is a great resource for genealogists, local historians, and anyone who's just feeling a little nostalgic. Each book is fully searchable. You can even download the books as PDFs and print any pages you want. Go ahead and take a look - you never know what you might find.
The service that hosts our online yearbook collection is currently experiencing technical difficulties. As they work to resolve the problem, you can still find hard copies of local high school yearbooks in our collection. Start with a catalog search!
We have uploaded all of the yearbooks we have for these schools, though some may have been missing from our collection. Some years/schools have been uploaded by other libraries and have been linked where possible.
Entries with an * are missing several years.
