Greetings,
I wanted to let you in on the DL about a great MeL resource that you may not have all the details about. It's called MeL Michigana and it's in the black navigation bar at the top of MeL.org and can be reached directly at http://mel.org/michigana.

MeL Michigana is a carefully selected set of resources that are all-Michigan, all-local, all-the-time. In the center of the page are, among other things, local history collections that are the result of an LSTA-funded digitization project. They span the U.P. digitization project, Detroit, Michigan Civil War soldiers, the War of 1812, and the Kalamazoo College Cache among many others.

There's also a search box on MeL Michigana. If you're curious about what it searches, please go to at http://mel.org/help, click on "Michigana" and check out the list.

There are hundreds of vetted and described web resources in a wide variety of categories including Arts & Architecture, Associations and Organizations, Business, History, Industry, Maps & Atlases, Military, Museum, Nautical and more.

Thanks! And enjoy.
