What are you watching?

There are a plethora of online options for viewing pleasure from NetFlix and Comcast, to CNN and other news organizations. What if you want to review real history? Not historical fiction, not a sound bite, but an event.

GALILEO offers a link to the C-SPAN Video Library.
The 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.
The C-SPAN Video Library is available freely on the net but would you remember it was there? The GALILEO link is another reason Georgians turn first to their Online Library! Resources gathered to help Georgia residents.
