We went digging for resources
for our assigned project teams that would enable them to develop great
web sites full of useful information and "gems" of wisdom! Under
the guidance of Ruth
Dickstein, the Women's Studies Librarian, we searched the world wide
web and the University of Arizona's
Library collections for books and articles. We developed the
skills necessary to "dig" for our sources using multi-search engines and
the Arizona Index.
We located nuggets of truth and mined the library resources of
America's best educational
institutions.
Our explorations brought
to the surface many fascinating stories about the women who helped shape
the Arizona Territory into the Copper State of today: the one with
the female Governor... and Secretary of State...and State Treasurer...and
Attorney General...
We hope you enjoy our Arizona
stories about the ladies who endured hardship and the challenge of life
on the border, from our pioneer women to today's community leaders.
