HIST 813 Primary Sources 29 October 2005

As I was finishing my teaching project this past week, I had the chance to really search the various archives of digitized sources. I am starting to really learn the difference between the agencies. For example, the Library of Congress has a lot of pop culture, non-government holdings. NARA is almost exclusively made up of documents from government agencies. I learned by researching which ones to tap for something I was looking for. I definitely became smarter when it came to finding a primary source to fit my topic.
