New Web Site - Kyleidoscope -- Highlights the Kentuckiana Digital Library

UK Public Relations has issued a press release highlighting a new web site called Kyleidoscope which is a collaboration of the Kentucky Virtual Library, Kentucky Department of Education and our Special Collections and Digital Programs. The site is intended “to provide the state's K-12 educators and students convenient access to some of Kentucky's most unique resources that span history from 1750 to today.”“Kyleidoscope offers historical information organized by theme, instructional worksheets and historical details. Students will also have the opportunity to use digitized photographs and documents from Kentucky archives on the Web site. The site, which can be used in the classroom, provides a timeline of Kentucky's history divided into themes or eras. Each theme provides links to events that occurred during that period of time in Kentucky's history.” Read more about it in the full press release at http://news.uky.edu/news/display_article.php?artid=4634 Congratulations to Eric Weig and others in Special Collections and Digital Programs.
