The Library of Congress has a new home for its teacher resources:
the Teachers page at loc.gov/teachers.
For more than ten years, the Library has provided teachers with
access to millions of digitized primary sources and the tools educators
need to use them in the classroom. As of today, these tools are
moving to a new, easy-to-find center for teachers just one click
away from the Library's home page. Some of the new features include:
- TPS Direct, the Library's new build-your-own professional development
tool.
- A dedicated home page for primary source sets.
- Using Primary Sources, a quick introduction to the authentic
classroom use of primary sources.
- Coming soon, a new search tool just for classroom materials.
The full transition will take place over time, and new features
will become available from now on, so keep watching for the latest
developments. If you’re having trouble finding a familiar
resource, ask our reference staff using the “Ask a Librarian”
feature.
Whether you're a longtime user or just beginning, we hope you'll
explore the new site, update your bookmarks, and discover the instructional
power of primary sources at loc.gov/teachers.
