Because the remnants of the New Deal period are so many and varied, yet poorly documented, the California’s Living New Deal Project is using the internet to enlist the aid of historical associations, preservations societies, New Deal veterans, librarians, historians, teachers, students, and others throughout California in a collective act of research and documentation.
