MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury’s Ilsley Public Library is participating in a statewide project that, once completed, will allow global, on-line access to up to 100,000 pages of Vermont newspapers published from 1836 to 1922.
The “Vermont Digital Newspaper Project,” funded through a $391,552 grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities, will make available through the Internet a wealth of historical and genealogical resources contained in microfilmed archives that can now only be accessed at specific sites where that information is stored.
