Chronicling America has updated a couple of its very useful tools for all of us, their interactive map and their timeline visualization tool.
Here’s the announcement:
“The Library of Congress is pleased to announce the publication of a new interactive map and timeline of all digitized titles in the Chronicling America Historic American Newspapers collection. This visualization features a map that shows approximate locations of all digitized newspapers available in the collection. Users can explore the newspapers by clicking the dots on the map and/or access a time slider in the lower left hand corner to interact with the timeline and explore the available digitized newspapers published between 1777-1963. This map is updated weekly.
Explore the new map and timeline and other data visualizations of the Chronicling America Historic American Newspapers collection.”
