    Hi all,

    I hope you are all doing well!

    I wanted to share a resource to start the conversation about Digital Conversion. The Digital Public Library of America hosts millions of digitized objects including texts, images, and videos. These are primary sources that cover American history and culture. There are many ways to explore this site. So far, my favorite find is high school yearbooks.

    Take a look and share your thoughts or fun finds!
