Play a part in preserving this important history

To build awareness and support for the Library, we are identifying and reaching out to the original thinkers and doers who made charters a reality. While the Library is a national initiative, we are focusing our efforts state-by-state. The initial partner states are Colorado, Michigan, and Minnesota, with plans for California next. For each state, we will:


Identify and solicit commitments from key people and organizations


Partner with an Institution that specializes in archiving historical works


Gather, archive, and digitize original source materials, and record oral histories


Promote the Library, share the charter story, and influence the future
