Partnership Grant Spotlight
Since the late 1800s, the Topsfield Historical Society has organized and published over 34 volumes of material documenting significant events in the community. With the objective of making Topsfield's local history available to a much larger public audience, the Society initiated the "Digital History Online Project." The primary focus of the Essex Heritage grant funded
work was the creation of a
new website and portal
with links to the society's digitized collections, to Topsfield-related material available on other websites, and to robust search tools to access information from all sources.
