Welcome to Indiana OnlineTM, a Web-based electronic encyclopedia that will bring together historical information, cultural resources, statistical data, educational materials, and interactive multimedia resources about Indiana. This site will highlight the ongoing planning process and development of this multi-year project for project sponsors and partners, as well as for other interested parties. It will also serve as the location where we will begin to construct the encyclopedia and test its assorted components. Indiana Online is sponsored by the Indiana Humanities Council in partnership with The Polis Center at IUPUI and with the assistance of the National Endowment for the Humanities. It aims to provide easily accessible information about the state to business and civic leaders, students and educators, cultural organizations, faith-based communities, as well as a general audience interested in learning more about the state. Indiana Online will use the latest Internet technology to provide access to cultural, economic, and historical resources pertaining to Indiana wherever those materials may be located. In addition to making useful information available to diverse audiences, it will present the state as a national leader in the development of reliable, high-quality online new media.
