This has been a busy summer for us at the Montana History Portal, and we are still charging ahead as we approach fall. This week we were at the Montana State Library Fall Workshop, a bi-annual educational conference for Library Directors from around the state to come together and enhance their professional knowledge. We had the chance to present on the genealogical resources available on the History Portal, and were thrilled to meet with an engaged and curious audience. If you don't already know, we have a comprehensive genealogical hub on the History Portal, which you can find here. It has links to dozens of different collections, including Military Enlistment records (example below), Yearbooks, Prison Records, and lots more - we hope you will check it out.
Next week we will be at the Montana History Conference in Helena - we hope to see you there in person. Dave Colamaria will be in attendance and he'd love to chat with you about projects you are thinking about bringing to the History Portal. He would also be happy to answer questions about our content or our website functionality - track him down next week in Helena!
