Near and Far: How to Utilize the Wyoming Places Digital Collection Wherever You Are

Friday, April 5 at 10 a.m. MT/12 p.m. ET

Join the Wyoming State Library for a detailed look at the Wyoming Places Digital Collection. We’ll travel through time with the Places Calendar, track cartographical development with Wyoming on the Map, and complete specific searches in the Places Database to start your adventures. Learn how Places provides information about locations, histories, and name origins throughout the state of Wyoming, and how you and your students, patrons, or colleagues can utilize this database wherever you are. While we won’t go into detail on the vast Virtual History Exhibits, we will briefly introduce you to them as well. What are you waiting for? Let’s go Places!
