More Than 100 Years Of Kansas City Jewish Chronicle Now Digitally Archived

Community news offers the first draft of local history and that's one of the main reasons that we started this blog.

Accordingly . . . We're inspired by the efforts of local faith community news to preserve their traditions.

Here's an important note on a local resource which helps to preserve the past and document the lives of so many Kansas City denizens . . .

The Chronicle has launched a comprehensive digital archive, featuring every issue of The Chronicle from Jan. 2, 1920, through Jan. 6, 2022—a full 101 years of content, viewable by individual issue and page, and fully searchable.

The Chronicle digital archive is offered in partnership with the Kansas City Jewish Community Digital Archive, an independent website coming soon thanks to the efforts of three community leaders: Andrew Kaplan, Alan Edelman and Dr. Norman Kahn. The Jewish Community Digital Archive will contain content from the Jewish Community Archives of Greater Kansas City, housed at UMKC, as well as historical documents and images related to congregations, Jewish organizations and other areas of Jewish life. It also will be fully searchable . . .
