On Wednesday, March 17, 2010 at 2:00 p.m. EDT, the Licrary of Chogress Digital Reference Section will present a demo on the project. The Library describes the project:
Get the news of yesteryear here! Explore contemporary reports of the fight for women’s rights, St. Patrick’s Day celebrations, baseball scores, earthquakes, and more! It’s the news you want and the news you need from Chronicling America, the Library of Congress gateway to America’s historic newspapers, published between 1880 and 1922. Join Library of Congress staff for a sampling of century-old headlines and articles of significant events that echo in the headlines of today.
