As the largest library in the world, the Library of Congress epitomizes the expansion of the library services beyond four walls, into both the physical and virtual community. Peruse throught their American Folklife Center, special exhibits and collections, and especially their link "For Kids and Families." Whether for homework help or just plain fun, this is a great place to bookmark.The Library currently has a Flickr page with four sets of incredible photographs: Photocrom Travel Views, World War I Panoramas, 1930s-40s in Color, and News in the 1910s. From county fairs to tomato picking to women in the war effort, these are amazing records of our past!
