The Connecticut State Library has received six awards from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) for National Digital Newspaper Program (NDNP) grants to digitize historically significant Connecticut newspapers. These grants resulted in the creation of the Connecticut Digital Newspaper Project (CDNP), which manages all aspects of the grant project and works in conjunction with NEH and the Library of Congress to deliver the digitized newspapers in each grant cycle. To date, the Connecticut State Library has been awarded $1.5 million in funds to digitize 500,000 pages of microfilmed newspapers in total. The current cycle, our sixth, runs from September 1, 2023, to August 31, 2025. The list of titles that were digitized during our last grant cycle can be found below.
