The DPQ is Back in Town!

The Digital Patchwork Quilt (DPQ) has returned after a long hiatus. An extensive database of stories, photographs, newspaper clippings, the DPQ was first published online in the early 2000s by the Skene Memorial Library but was forced off-line due to extensive, unwanted hacking.

Thanks to a generous grant from The O’Connor Foundation, the DPQ has been upgraded and is now available at www.skeneLib.org/DPQ. The DPQ is a broad history of Fleischmanns, covering the many early events that made Fleischmanns a vibrant and active Catskills community. You’ll find accounts of boarding houses, cemetery ramblings, vintage postcards, unique photographs, personal stories of our many residents and more [WikiPedia once used the DPQ as a resource.]. Once again, read all about Fleischmanns and its many ‘avenues’!
