Historic newspapers contain a treasure trove of information about past student musicians, band and choir directors, performance venues, programs, performances, community engagement, and more. Examples, illustrating local news coverage of student activities are available - with countless other examples from across the United States - from Chronicling America (https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/). It was created and is supported by the National Digital Newspaper Program, a joint partnership between the Library of Congress and the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH). These government agencies formally launched the Chronicling America program in 2004, growing the initiative from the NEH's United States Newspaper Program (USNP), an earlier effort to catalog and preserve millions of pages of historic newspapers in every state.
