Library of Congress and Kansas State Department of Education Announce New Professional Learning Program

Library of Congress and Kansas State Department of Education Announce New Professional Learning Program The Library of Congress and the Kansas State Department of Education are working together to bring the Library's foundational professional learning program "Teaching with Primary Sources" to K-12 educators and school librarians throughout the state in February and April 2025. The initiative is dedicated to working with rural communities to explore the use of primary sources from the national library's vast – and free –digitalized collections as teaching and research tools, providing hands-on support and instruction. Library of Congress education specialists will visit four Kansas cities: Hutchinson, Scott City, Lawrence and Girard. In addition to on-site workshops for educators, the visits include free events for community members to discover a variety of the Library's online collections found at loc.gov, with demonstrations on accessing those collections. The Library is collaborating with local museums and public libraries to host these community events which include learning sessions on topics such as genealogy and local history, the Veterans History Project, and the Kansas Talking Book Project. See the community event schedules and a full list of sessions below. Click here for more information.   You are subscribed to Latest News from the Library of Congress.
