This is a small selection of the images held by the National Library of Wales, which holds hundreds of thousands of images documenting the people and landscapes of Wales through the ages. The National Library has adopted an open access ethos and currently employs a Wikipedian in Residence, and is now releasing some of the nation's most treasured collections to Wikimedia Commons for everyone to use and enjoy.

Wonderful images, but I really wish they'd release them with a bit higher resolution: Low resolution images are eminently replaceable with high-definition ones, so a too-low-resolution release can be problematic. Adam Cuerden (talk) 23:28, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'm surprised this hasn't generated more comment. This is really an excellent display that Jason.nlw has put together. I don't know what technical limitations he's working under there but perhaps getting higher quality scans is something he could address.
