    3. This might be a good place to search for some old newspapers. Haven't had a chance to see if any of our locals are there yet, but maybe soon.....link to Tennessee State Library and Archive is at the end of article. J From the Knoxville News Sentinel: KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The University of Tennessee will digitize 100,000 pages of Tennessee's microfilmed newspapers from 1836 to 1922. The school has received $325,165 from the National Endowment for the Humanities to work with the Tennessee State Library and Archives as part of the NEH's National Digital Newspaper Program. An advisory group of genealogists, educators, researchers and citizens from across the state will select newspapers for the project. The pages will be digitized over the next two years. More grants will be sought to complete the digitization of all state newspapers. The papers will first appear in Chronicling America at http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov and later will be available through the UT Library website. http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov Knoxville News Sentinelhttp://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov <http://license.icopyright.net/3.5963?icx_id=224130>
