Join the Library of Congress reference librarians to learn the best starting points, search strategies, and tips for using the Library’s vast resources.
As a highlight of the webinar, prize-winning author and co-founder of Biographers International Organization James McGrath Morris will be interviewed by Jeffrey Flannery, head of the Library’s Manuscript Reading Room. They’ll explore manuscript collections, rare newspapers, photographs, and other treasures Mr. Morris has used in-person at the Library for his fascinating books on Joseph Pulitzer, Ethel Payne, and other wide-ranging topics. Learn why Mr. Morris’s “heart beats a little faster” as he approaches the Library in anticipation of the riches he will find.
