About

The Newfoundland and Labrador Heritage Website is an ambitious public history project that aims to provide school students and the general public with a wide range of authoritative information on the province's history, culture, and geography. It is based at Memorial University of Newfoundland. Faculty, graduate students, and professional writers contribute articles, while undergraduate students provide support as research assistants.

Since its launch in 1997, the Heritage Website has expanded from about a hundred pages to more than a thousand. Stay for a while and explore the wealth of articles, still images, sound recordings, and videos we have to offer. In a medium where questionable information is widespread, the Heritage Website stands out as a trustworthy resource.
