Cool, so, remind me how it works?

You submit questions that could be the topic of a great Chattanooga history story. We take the submissions, let readers vote on their favorite, and then we find the answer using only library materials — books and other resources from the third floor. Read more background here.

You’re welcome to submit a question on any Chattanooga-history-related topic, but March is Women’s History Month. My minor at UTC was women’s studies, and I would love to learn something new about Chattanooga women trailblazers. So, give me your best questions on this topic if you’ve got them. 👇
