Can’t think of a better way to support the #CivicSeason this year than helping lead a weeklong field experience for educators with our friends from the @vageogalliance.bsky.social, @newamericanhistory.bsky.social, the Smithsonian Rural Education initiative, & @nationalarchives.gov.uk.web.gy!

“If you’re curious about what microfiche is, tune in and you’ll see the process of scanning—and learn a little bit about history.” Behind-the-scenes with Louis Brizuela & his six-person team @archive.org - digitizing #DemocracysLibrary - a free digital archive of government research #CivicSeason
