Chronicling America and History Day Research
September 13, 2011, 6:30pm to 7:30pm
The Ohio Historical Society, in conjunction with the National Digital Newspaper Program, presented a free webinar demonstrating how to use the Library of Congress's Chronicling America. Chronicling America is a freely-available, keyword-searchable, digital newspaper database containing almost 4 million newspaper pages from all over the nation – including Ohio – published between 1836 to 1922. Educators, History Day coordinators and others joined the National Digital Newspaper Program in Ohio staff to learn all about this great resource and how it could be incorporated into History Day research and other lesson plans. One contact hour was provided to all educators attending the webinar.
