The USS Constitution Museum will create an online collections, research, and interpretive portal for educators and information seekers of all ages offering free and unlimited access to the museum's nationally significant collection of manuscripts, rare books, artifacts, and artwork capturing the role of the Constitution during the War of 1812. The project leverages the museum's decade-long groundbreaking historical research and makes collections and interpretive resources broadly available in one place for on-going engagement, enjoyment and discovery. . The project will give users unlimited access to museum-generated content including papers about ship history, crew profiles, interactive maps, teacher resources, curricula, and videos. The project will enlarge the museum's virtual and physical audience, increase awareness of the ship, and encourage greater research and connections to it.
