Prior Awards

On February 8, 2022, the State Library’s Park Street Foundation received a donation of $1,000 from the New Hampshire Society of Genealogists for the purchase of a laptop computer to be loaded with state purchased software. The laptop will be lent to NH public libraries for the digitization of historical records held by their towns and to make them available online through the State Library’s digital platform. 

 

The computer character recognition software can convert typewritten text into

computer searchable documents, providing valuable time saving and state-of-the-art preservation of historical documents.

 

The Society will be fulfilling its mission of serving all those interested in NH

genealogy from the novice to the professional, ensuring public access to the

records, and promoting records preservation.

 

The New Hampshire State Library will announce the future date of the project’s

completion and when records will be available to the public.
