History Hub is a support community for history enthusiasts, researchers, citizen archivists, family historians, and archival professionals, which is managed by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). Users are encouraged to ask topically relevant questions, and share answers and guidance in response to questions from other community members. NARA moderates the community in accordance with this policy, because we believe that a well-managed community will be more valuable to all members.
