For easy searching and browsing, the Smallpox and Guinea Worm Chronicles are organized by type of content, geography, person names, and date.

Content is organized into categories that describe both the broad genre of work (oral history, presentation) and in some cases, the actual file format (audio/video). Names of people identified in the collection item have been cataloged and arranged alphabetically for browsing. Similarly, you can browse the collection using the alphabetical list of countries or a filter by date.

Please explore this collection by selecting a chronicle from the drop down menu at the top of the page and continue browsing using the links in the blue navigation bar at the top of the page. You can also search by keyword or perform an advanced search that allows you to specify your search by exact phrase, any or all terms, geography, or decade.

About The Site:

The Smallpox Eradication Chronicle is the first component of the Global Health Chronicles project. It is a joint initiative of the Emory University Libraries, the Rollins School of Public Health, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, all of which have contributed to the project. We are especially grateful for the generous support of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, the Emory Global Health Institute, and the Google.org Fund of Tides Foundation.
