The population growth of Nevada would have never been possible without a vast series of engineering projects designed to modify the landscape around the state. Water has always been an area of great concern for people in the region, and this fine digital collection from the University of Nevada-Las Vegas "documents the historic role of water resource management in Southern Nevada." The collection includes over 1,200 objects. Visitors may do well to start with the Timeline section, where they will find an interactive timeline that includes icons leading to educational resources for teachers. Moving on, the thematic sections, such as The Politics of Water, offer contextual essays and image sets that explore the various facets of these transformations. Additionally, the For Educators area includes primary source sets for the classroom such as "The Railroad & Water Rights" and "Municipal Ownership."
