Content from Pitt’s Archives and Special Collections have been featured in a digital exposition hosted by Google Arts & Culture. Pittsburgh joins just four other American cities in being featured on the prestigious platform, which is free to the public.

“Pittsburgh embodies the American work ethic: Grit, know-how and a can-do attitude,” the site says.
