Resources & related organizations

The work depends on a network.

RHKMI research grows from public collections, local knowledge, institutional stewardship, fieldwork, and the willingness to compare evidence across boundaries.

This is the beginning of a working directory. Direct links, collection notes, and project-specific acknowledgments will be added as materials are published.

Collections & public history

  • Museum of Ceramics
  • East Liverpool Historical Society
  • Carnegie Museum of Natural History
  • Wellsville Historical Society

Credit is part of the evidence

Collections should remain visible.

Each RHKMI publication will identify the source of images and information as precisely as the surviving record allows, distinguish original artifacts from interpretive renderings, and state when a conclusion remains provisional.
