On May 7-8, 2009, NDNP Hawaii welcomed Deborah Thomas, Program Coordinator for the NDNP at the Library of Congress. She conducted a site visit at our facility and was also able to give two presentations on each day of her visit. Her first presentation was held on Thursday evening, 6 PM, at Hamilton 301. This presentation was geared more towards the general public, offering explanation about the project and the results so far. http://www.hawaii.edu/calendar/manoa/2009/05/07/9813.html Her second presentation was held on Friday noon at the same room, Hamilton 301. This presentation was geared more towards the library community, offering more detailed and technical explanation regarding the NDNP and the Chronicling America website. http://www.hawaii.edu/calendar/manoa/2009/05/08/9814.html Both presentations were well attended with approximately 30 people in attendance on both presentations.
