About Localités/Localities

The Eastern Illinois University History Department, in partnership with Consolidated Telephone Company (Lumpkin Foundation) and with the assistance of the Illinois Regional Archives Depository (IRAD) and the Graduate School/Vice President of Academic Affairs office of Eastern Illinois University, has established Localités/Localities, an ongoing project, which is part of our "doing local history initiative" and seeks:

  • To establish and expand a web-based center for local history, including interactive storage and retrieval of historical tools and documents.
  • To foster use of the Web as a teaching and research tool for history in academia, regional schools, and the local community;
  • To further local and worldwide discussion of local history.
