DIGITAL PUBLIC LIBRARY OF AMERICA (THE EDUCATION GUIDE) - DPLA brings the wealth of U.S. libraries, archives, and museums to your classroom. If it’s your first time using our site, this guide will help you discover the many great resources DPLA offers educators and students.
LIBRARY OF CONGRESS (EDUCATION RESOURCES) - The Library of Congress offers classroom materials and professional development to help teachers use primary sources from the Library's vast digital collections.
GOOD READS - Goodreads is a website for book lovers to review books, share recommendations, and track reading history and goals. It's also a social network where teens can see what their friends are reading and can join discussion groups for their favorite books. Teachers need to know that the site is geared primarily toward adult users with no special "kid section," so teens may be connecting with readers of all ages. With that in mind, Goodreads is generally very focused on literature and the bulk of communication occurs within reviews, not private discussions or email.
