Was your school or college a New Deal project? |

The Living New Deal Project has catalogued hundreds of New Deal sites and mapped them on the project Web site. Research Fellow Gray Brechin eventually wants to catalogue every county in the state. Brechin urged educators to use the Web site as a resource and asked them to enlist their students as fellow treasure hunters to help locate New Deal projects that have been lost because they never had markers or their plaques have been removed. Many of the schools are no longer open to the public so Brechin and his collaborators often rely on employees in those buildings. He urges school employees to send information and digital photographs of buildings and artwork to the project for entry and mapping.
