National History Day has for several years been designed and promoted as a yearly academic event for middle- and high-school students to conduct original research on historical topics that interest them. This year’s research theme is Triumph and Tragedy in History.
At Hennepin County libraries students in the community will have access to librarians, Minnesota History Day staff and University of Minnesota mentors, who will be on hand to help them choose, start, and develop their History Day research projects.
