We have officially launched another segment of our three-year CLIR-funded grant project, Broadcasting Baltimore: Digitizing Hidden Histories in the WJZ-TV Collection, by having our collection available to search in Digital Maryland. Digital Maryland is a collaborative, statewide digital preservation program of the Enoch Pratt Free Library/Maryland State Library Resource Center. Users can search and explore historical and cultural documents, images, audio, and videos that record Maryland’s history. Digital Maryland partners with institutions throughout the state to present unique and important primary source materials that document aspects of Maryland history from its inception to the present. We are thrilled to be a part of this digital preservation program and that more people will find the stories we uncover in our collection through Digital Maryland’s platform! Start exploring our collection as well as other Maryland collections here.

The Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR) is an independent, nonprofit organization that forges strategies to enhance research, teaching, and learning environments in collaboration with libraries, cultural institutions, and communities of higher learning.
