Speaker: Tara Carlisle from the University of North Texas in Denton
Topic: Interactive on line “how to” on use of the website “The Portal to Texas History”. It will include a Question & Answer period. [poster]
What is the Portal? The Portal is a gateway to Texas history materials. You may discover anything from an ancestor's picture to a rare historical map. From prehistory to the present day, you can explore unique collections from Texas libraries, museums, archives, historical societies, genealogical societies, and private family collections. The Portal continues to grow as additional partners contribute digital versions of their collections.
