Origins Readership Passes 100,000
From the Chair:
Colleagues:
I am very pleased to announce that our on-line journal, Origins: Current Events in Historical Perspective, recently attracted its 100,000th visitor-surpassing this notable threshold within two years of publishing its first issue! The 100,000 (+) readers have hailed from more than 120 countries.
Congratulations to our colleagues who have made it happen: Nick Breyfogle, Steve Conn, David Staley, Lawrence Bowdish, Glenn Kranking, and Chris Aldridge.
Thanks also to those who have contributed essays: Manse Blackford, Lawrence Bowdish, Kevin Boyle, Saul Cornell, Stephen Dale, Theodora Dragostinova, Joe Guilmartin, Mitch Lerner, Scott Levi, Pete Mansoor, Bob McMahon, Chris Otter, Chris Reed, Claire Robertson, Ahmad Sikainga, and Mytheli Sreenivas.
If you have not yet discovered Origins, I encourage you to take a look at it ( http://history.osu.edu/other/origins.cfm) and to consider using it as a teaching tool. Nick and Steve welcome suggestions for future articles-and volunteers to write them!
