Historians and history
aficionados alike will find much to interest them in this digital collection
from the Chicago History Museum. While this resource represents only a small
portion of the museum's vast collection, those who are unable to visit in
person can view many of their most popular and significant holdings through
this website. Its contents are divided by type of material, with artifacts,
prints and photos, and oral history making up the major categories, and users
can search or browse the collections by keyword, date, related events, and
several other parameters. Examples from the collection include artifacts that
survived the Great Chicago Fire, photos documenting the civil rights march from
Selma to Montgomery, and interviews from the Chicago Cold War Oral History
Project. Historians may also be particularly interested in the collection of
finding aids that are available on this website, which offers a glimpse of the
materials in the Chicago History Museum's archives. The museum adds items to
their digital collections regularly, so this resource is worth multiple visits.
