This is GREAT. I totally agree with you, it's really cool and interesting. You may not get everyone's attention, but got mine.

I like the timetable and the fact that you can also click on all entries on the timeline at the bottom to get all info in one document. The link to the women legislators bio is also very handy. I think it will be especially helpful for researchers in women's studies and for students doing history projects.

Eddie Weeks, Legislative Librarian, Tennessee Legislature

That is _wonderful_. Excellent information presented in an excellent manner.

Kristin Ford, Legislative Librarian, Idaho Legislature

Nice work, Minnesota librarians! You always inspire! :)

Molly Otto, Legislative Librarian, Colorado Legislature

The timeline is an interesting and valuable resource. Good job!

I think it is really great and I have used it to look up many of the women that I know, past and present, in the legislature.

The timeline looks great, and the well-organized essays on certain laws (and especially their links to sources!) will be a big help to Minnesotans and others interested in women's history and the laws directly affecting us. Congratulations to you and your staff for a job well done.

Shelley Day, Legislative Librarian, Utah Legislature

As always, your projects are amazing!

Well done! This is a very easy to use piece of information and an example of what libraries are capable of doing.

I will definitely share this with social studies teachers at the Arts High School and school library colleagues in August. Thanks for sharing this very useful information.

This is so interesting- the little bit of legislation early in the century, the huge gap and then flurry of activity in the 70s- 90s. It shows that when we get organized, we can have an impact. In my work today many people think women have achieved equity. Sadly, the facts show a different story. This is an excellent educational piece.
