The first public Web sites anywhere were developed at the University of Kansas. These include 1) KUfacts 2) the Index of Resources for Historians and 3) Kansas On-line...
The Kansas Heritage Information Server (which I will refer to as Kansas Heritage) is located at the University of Kansas and was created by Lynn Nelson in 1994. Kansas Heritage was developed from the content of its predecessor called 'Kansas History and Life' (a.k.a. Kansas On-line) that was established by Lynn Nelson in 1993. The electronic texts archived in Kansas On-line also became the foundation for the Kansas Collection. I cannot stress enough the significance of Kansas Heritage and the Kansas Collection to historians and genealogists.
The first Web sites built originally as part of Kansas Heritage include the Kansas State Historical Society, Kansas Pioneers List (KPL), One-Room School House (ORSH) project, Johnson County Genealogical Society, Sunflower Journeys (SJ), Early Kansas Imprint Scanners (EKIS), Historical Directory of Kansas Towns (HDKT), Abilene Community Network, and the Kansas Community Networks (KCN).
