Be sure to check out this recently expanded web site for use in your classroom teaching. The Ohio Historical Society has gathered in one place hundreds of tools to make your Ohio history and statehood studies easy and enjoyable. This convenient, user-friendly facility is located adjacent to the classrooms at the Ohio Historical Center. The center houses materials on more than over 30 major subject areas, ranging from Ohio's prehistoric Indians to aviation. Hundreds of files hold maps, articles, images, handouts, lesson plans, and other materials, as well as information on OHS-operated historical sites.
Many materials are available for loan, and inexpensive copies can be made of the other materials.
Periodicals, posters, and assistance from friendly attendants are additional features that make your trip to the facility rewarding. Teachers may use the center without charge. Please call for an appointment if you wish to visit the Center in person. In addition, educators may e-mail the center for inquiries on specific Ohio history topics. They also may access loan materials from the center through the Ohio Historical Society's web site.
