The database Discovering American Women's History Online has been added to the A-Z list of databases and the Women's Studies Resource Page. It provides access to digital collections of primary sources (photos, letters, diaries, artifacts, etc.) that document the history of women in the United States.
Discovering American Women's History Online was created and is maintained by Ken Middleton (a reference librarian at Middle Tennessee State University). This resource won the 2009 ABC-CLIO Online History Award.
