The Western Trails Project is a multi-state collaborative between Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, and Wyoming. Participants in the project digitize and provide World Wide Web access to photographs, text, and maps about historic and modern trails in the western states. The Western Trails Project was funded in part by a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services . The Nebraska Library Commission is the coordinator for the Nebraska participants.
