They turn back the clock to 1965 and showcase news stories from the year which included a Royal visit. City centre landmarks are also featured including a newly built cinema as well as a range of memories from the suburbs with Bramley, Thorner, Hyde Park, Beeston, Garforth and Crossgates in focus. The images are a mix from the YEP archive and others published courtesy of photographic archive Leodis, which is run by Leeds Library & Information Service. They also run heritage blog The Secret Library Leeds, which provides a behind the scenes look at the Central Library and highlights from its special collections, including rare books hidden away in the stacks.
