Online digital archives are an exciting way to research a topic for your paper or presentation. You can cite the website in a paper or include and cite an image (look at our APA citation handouts if you're not sure how). Many newspapers, libraries, museums, and other institutions are scanning and uploading their collections online for others to browse.

Here are a few examples you may want to learn more about:
Ernest Hemingway used to write and travel for the
Toronto Star in his youth. His articles and some biographical information (including images) can be found on their site
The Hemingway Papers.

You can find some of his work at SWFC! The Tampa campus has
The
short stories: The first forty-nine stories with a brief preface by the
author in its leisure reading collection under the call number F HEM 1986.
The Florida Memory Project has photos, video, and audio from institutions all over Florida. They even have topics separated into collections and have online exhibits to help you sort through everything.
ECE students may be particularly interested in the
Classroom portion of the site, which helps teachers create units.
You can also keep updated on what's going on by subscribing to their
blog.
Those interested in history will want to look at the
The Lively Morgue, the blog for the photo archives of
The New York Times. They post images with the date and any known information that are deemed particularly interesting, since they have millions to choose from.
This is just a starting point; there are many online archives on the Internet to explore! Ask a SWFC librarian for help finding more resources.
