It appears that there is remarkably little information about New York
State history available on the Web.  I have found a few useful sites and
listed them our Library 's "history" page.  The URL is
http://www.sunysb.edu/libmap/hhome.htm.  Look under "Other Links to
Off-Campus Resources."  You might also want to try the Yahoo New York State
history listing, which is comprehensive but unselective.  There is also a
link to that site from my history page.
