The Online Nevada Encyclopedia is a project of Nevada Humanities, a publicly funded non-profit organization dedicated to engaging Nevadans in the intellectual, cultural, and civic life of the communities in which they live, and to preserving and making accessible Nevada’s rich and unique history and heritage.
Thanks to the generous financial support of project sponsors, ONE is available to anyone, anywhere with Internet access.
ONE is an authoritative source of information thanks to the editors, contributors, and project partners who have generously shared their archival collections and expertise.
The website was designed and developed by Twelve Horses.
