On the first day of May, International Workers’ Day, 2020, staff of the international collections divisions at the Library of Congress celebrate workers everywhere by sharing a tribute to workers who have engineered and implemented innovations like paper, movable print, video, internet, and crowd sourcing to make information sharing possible!
To honor the Library’s 220th anniversary, this blog looks at some freely accessible digital collections and projects from four divisions: African & Middle Eastern, Asian, European, and Hispanic.
This blogpost offers a reminder that the Ask a Librarian service and the online catalogs with rich international content are still available while the Library of Congress buildings are closed to the public.
This blog describes the digitized Chinese rare book “The Illustrated Album of the Kemeng Guyang Miao People,” an ethnographic work describing the indigenous Miao people of southwest China.
