Designed as a "scrapbook," the Web site consists of digitized documents and images of artifacts, ranging from Indian treaties to women's dresses to fossils, that have been contributed by archives throughout the state. These records have been assembled in two phases. During phase 1, which ended in June 2002, only items created before 1903 were collected; that restriction was removed for phase 2, which is scheduled for completion in September 2003. As of this writing, most collections in Ohio Memory, even those whose guides have been revised down to the present, are still largely composed of pre-1903 records. As an archive primarily of the first hundred years of statehood, Ohio Memory reflects both the long-term collecting strategies of donor institutions and the organizational principles of the Web site. . . .
