The Public History Resource Center, an academic metasite devoted to
curating the field of public history as it is practiced online, is
currently soliciting reviews for a special section on labor history.
If you would like to review one of the Web sites
below, or if you know of another site that you would like to review,
please contact us at [log in to unmask] The reviews should
be approximately 1200 words in length and analyze - using a variety
of criteria - a historically oriented Web site pertaining to the
history of labor.

PHRC has developed a comprehensive ratings system to aid reviewers
in the analysis of a history Web site. Our system is available
at: http://www.publichistory.org/reviews/rating_system.html.

Submissions must include a rating of the site based on PHRC's rating
system, a short abstract, and a two-sentence bio. Typically, we only
publish one review per site, so contact us as soon as possible with
the site you wish to review!  Sites will be assigned on a first
come, first serve basis. Reviews are due July 7, 2003, and will be
posted the first week of August to the Public History Resource Center's
Web
site.  Feel free to contact us at [log in to unmask] with any
questions.
