- This demonstration project examines the unique qualities of the Minnesota Digital Library and explores the ways it can be used by K-12 teachers and students in their classrooms. The Minnesota Digital Library is a digital collection of the state’s unique resources and special collections. The library contains Minnesota specific photos, maps, documents and objects held by Minnesota Digital Library partners to support education, scholarship and enrichment through Internet access to the collection. The digital collection was contributed by the partners, more than 50 participating historical societies, special archives, and libraries around Minnesota. Minnesota Reflections was the initial digitization effort of the Minnesota Digital Library, conducted from 2004-05 and contains over 6,000 unique photographs, images and information about them in a searchable database to help people access and use them.

- The Minnesota Digital Library is not a search engine, rather it’s a repository: an online image bank that county historical societies, special archives, and libraries from around Minnesota contribute images to. Teachers and students can access primary sources from Minnesota historical societies no matter when they are staffed or where they’re located. Resources that used to be housed in separate buildings in each county can now be viewed in one location online. Each image in the Minnesota Digital Library has detailed contact information, allowing researchers easy access to the contributing historical society for further information. Advertising can be confusing for students who often find it difficult to differentiate between Web sites that contain relevant information and the advertising or sponsors that may support it. When students use the Minnesota Digital Library, they aren’t searching the Web, they are searching a non-commercial repository where advertising won’t be a confusing distraction. All of the materials in the Minnesota Digital Library are digital reproductions of primary sources: original documents or objects made when a historical event occurred and reflecting the point of view of the people who made them.Students who study primary sources construct their own understandings of people, events, and ideas.
