Maine Community Heritage Project
Promoting community through the exploration of local history
The Maine Community Heritage Project is a partnership between Maine Historical Society and the Maine State Library, and is funded by a National Leadership grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services. It fosters collaborations between historical societies, public libraries, and schools. Community teams digitize local historical collections and exhibit them with supporting text on custom-designed local history websites housed on Maine Memory Network.
The second cohort of teams completed their websites in June. For photo-essays on final celebrations, please visit Living History, the MCHP blog. Enjoy perusing the new websites, as well as the sites created by the 2008-09 communities, from the links below. The next phase of MCHP will be announced this fall, at which time an application process will be made available. Meanwhile, if you have any questions about the program, please contact us.
