The Library of Congress, in association with the American Library Association's ALA Editions, have published two new educational books in the Discover and Learn with the Library series. Released on June 1, The American Revolution and Immigration and Migration in U.S. History "provide timely resources to help both learners and educators explore the unparalleled collections of the Library of Congress to understand different aspects of U.S. history," the LOC noted.
Discover and Learn with the Library books provide classroom-ready materials for teachers, librarians, and home educators working with grades 6-12 and are intended to support state curricula and teaching standards. They include full-color facsimiles of primary sources along with source citations, information about the sources' origins, teaching strategies and guides to additional online resources. Designed for educators and students, the books feature perforated pages on each primary source for ease of sharing.
Immigration and Migration in U.S. History and The American Revolution join previously published books in the series covering topics such as the Civil Rights Movement as well as invention and innovation. Discover and Learn with the Library is a product of the LOC's Center for Learning, Literacy and Engagement.
