Hartford Public Library

The Hartford History Center at the Hartford Public Library will partner with the Connecticut Center for Advanced Technology to develop a prototype interactive software application with goelocation capabilities, to serve as an electronic field guide to historically and culturally significant sites in the community. The prototype application will provide users with videos, photos, and other resources from the library’s collections related to the history, science, and public use of the city’s Keney Park. Targeted at middle- and high school urban youth, this tool will provide a new way to discover the library’s collections and assist users with individual and collective exploration of the community.
