[MassHistPres] Mass Historic - Resources

[Garrett Laws]

Howard,

Having this available in a digital format that could be shared between
homeowners and contractors would allow more use. Also developing a format
where multiple people could add resources would help it grow faster and
potentially be more robust. I wonder if the circuit rider program has
access to something along these lines.

Also, if there were an online resource a QR code could be created (for
free) and put on signs in front of historic projects for others quickly and
easily access the information. That action could make it more appealing for
homeowners to register their homes historically.

Cheers,
