The show will go on

If you missed an interview, speech or government event, the show will go on
in the C-Span archives. GALILEO collects web sites that will help Georgia residents get the best information, like C-Span archives.

C-Span Video Library includes over 160,000 hours of coverage of C-SPAN programs since 1987. The C-SPAN Archives, which records, indexes, and archives all C-SPAN programming for historical, educational, research, and archival uses, records all three C-SPAN networks seven days a week, twenty-four hours a day. Programs are indexed by subject, speaker names, titles, affiliations, sponsors, committees, categories, formats, policy groups, keywords, and location. The congressional sessions and committee hearings are indexed by person with full-text.

Yes, one can do a Google search for C-Span archives and get the site. For me, it is convenient to do the research in one place like GALILEO, especially when I forget about the specialty sites available on the wild web.

You may get the current password for GALILEO from your Georgia librarian.
