This directory is a free guide to history-focused digital projects for students, faculty, public history professionals, and anyone interested in learning about history through digital media.
It is designed to help connect researchers and learners with resources that can help them explore their interests, and to promote and share the wide range of digital projects in existence. This directory does not include all digital projects, but is vetted by the NCPH staff and Membership Committee for projects that are focused on the study or interpretation of historical subject matter, are open access, and are built with the intention of engaging a wide audience.
NCPH also intends for this to be a resource for those interested in developing their own digital projects by including information on costs, funding, labor, software, etc. for each entry.
The directory includes various filters to help you navigate to projects of interest and is keyword searchable.
