 * The Censuses - great for statistics on jobs, immigrants, population, etc.


 * HISTORICAL NEWSPAPERS

http://hn.bigchalk.com/hnweb/hn/do/search Its absolutely fantastic. I spent about an hour and a half on it. It is very well organized, and very user-friendly. It gets you editorial cartoons, newspapers, comics, basically anything you could possibly want. Serious recommendation. If you don't use it, your research paper will suffer. **


 * Urbanization:**

[|Urban Experience in Chicago: Hull House and Its Neighbors, 1889-1963] This is a really good website on life in Chicago in the Gilded Age and after. I can hardly imagine a character in our project that couldn't benefit from reading some parts of this website. There is everything there from articles on the life of children to architecture to, of course, settlement houses. (dk)

http://www.bc.edu/bc_org/avp/cas/fnart/fa267/1893fair.html This website has a lot of pictures of different buildings/exhibitions in the World Fair, including plans and overviews. It also has a couple more links at the bottom to some other World Fair websites.
 * Chicago World's Fair Websites:

Although this website may seem vague I think it does a very cool job of summarizing the important parts of the year by talking about advancements in political events, human rights, social justice, but more of what I've been using it for is for media, literature, art, theater, film, everyday life, food and drink and transportation as well as many other things. Here's any example that I used of [|Chronology of 1897] but you are able to scan through different years easily. **
