Online resources for your project

Everyone- here are some online resources you may want to use in your project

No doubt you will use some online resources for the Klukwan documentary project. Here are online media libraries and resources that your students might want to use:

• UAF Jukebox project ... "Project Jukebox is the digital branch of the Oral History Program at the University of Alaska Fairbanks." I just searched for Klukwan and several references came up
• Alaska Digital Archives ... a search for Klukwan brought up several photos and other materials
• Alaska State Museums ...there was less there than I thought there would be
• Flickr US national archives photostream ... quite a few photos
• National Archives and Records Administration images search engine ...I had some trouble with this the other day, but it is usually quite good
• Dept of Education and Early Childhood Development, Division of Archives, Libraries and Museums
• Creative Commons
• National Fish and Wildlife Service National Digital Library
• NASA Image of the Day Archive
• NASA Video Gallery

Searching Google like this reveals very good results:

• site:gov Klukwan

"site:gov" says to Google "return only references to sites that end in .gov." Sites that end in .gov tend to be higher quality in terms of historical and/or scientific accuracy.

Also, searching Google Images for Klukwan brings up several pages of images related to Klukwan

Questions? Let me know.
