The document discusses using the Library of Congress American Memory Digital Archives to teach primary sources and non-fiction in blended classrooms. It introduces the Library of Congress 2.0 program led by American Memory Fellows Linda and David Lackey, who will teach how to incorporate the archives into blended learning, where students learn partially online with some control over their schedule, and partially in a traditional classroom. The archives contain over 24 million digitized historical items that former Librarian of Congress Dr. James Billington championed as a way to keep democracy vital by making them freely available online.
