Women's History Month 2016: Tip #24 Search Digital Collections

What a great time to be a genealogist. Digital collections exist all over the Internet and provide us with the unique opportunity to search on collections we may not have known existed.

Digital collections can include everything from maps to digitized books and newspapers, correspondence, images and more. Some of my favorite places to find collections are:

• American Memory
• Digital Public Library of America
• Iowa Women's Archive Digital Collections
• Discovering American Women's History Online
• New York Public Library Digital Gallery

Take some time today to search out digital collections for the state your ancestor lived in.
