The Civil Rights Digital Library
The Civil Rights Digital Library (CDRL) is the most ambitious and comprehensive initiative to date to deliver educational content on the civil rights movement via the Web. It promotes an enhanced understanding of the movement through:
- digitized historical footage that allows viewers to become eyewitnesses to key events
- a portal that connects visitors to content from over 100 libraries and organizations nationwide
- instructional materials through its companion site, Freedom on Film, to help instructors use the video content in learning environments
A project of the University of Georgia Libraries, its Digital Library of Georgia, and GALILEO, CDRL is also a partnership project of the New Georgia Encyclopedia. Content related to the movement has been created for the Encyclopedia and connects to footage offered by the CRDL. Visit the Civil Rights Digital Library.
