Announcing Worthington Memory Launch

Worthington Libraries, (Worthington, Ohio) is pleased to announce the launch
of Worthington Memory - http://www.worthingtonmemory.org.

Worthington Libraries are partnering with the Worthington Historical Society
to build Worthington Memory. The goals of this collaborative project are to
provide greater access to local history materials through the creation of a
digital library, and to enhance public awareness of Worthington's rich
history. The time to do this in Ohio couldn't be better, as both the state
and Worthington are preparing to celebrate their bicentennials in 2003.

Remote access to materials through the Internet will make heavily used,
non-circulating library materials, archives and museum objects more
accessible while reducing the amount of physical handling they would
normally endure. This site will also bring attention to materials that
traditionally receive less use because they are in special or private
collections, or are very fragile.
