Description:
The Library of Congress is the Nation's Library. With over 13 million books plus millions more multimedia non-book resources, it is the largest library in the world. Its web site contains digitized sound recordings, films, photographs, maps, and texts from its national and international collections, plus online search tools and educational resources. Videoconference staff development programs help educators to navigate, search, and use these primary sources. Some content-based programs for students are planned for the future.
