Short History

In 1995 a database was developed by Dr. R. Jerry Adams to provide a common source of information for K-12 teachers, students, parents, and librarians.   The U.S. Department of Education's Funds for Innovation in Education Program then sponsored maintenance of a Web site named the Schoolhouse Project that utilized the database.   After a year the sponsorship was continued through the U.S. Department of Education's OERI Program under the name of Library-in-the-Sky.   In March of 1997 a permanent home was found for the Web site under the name of Awesome Library.   See About the Awesome Library for more information about its development.   As of 1999, Web Site Garage revealed that the Awesome Library has over 10,000 sites recommending it.   Below are some examples of linking sites and awards.
