Fellows,

The Library of Congress recently worked with C-SPAN on a series of
presentations (mostly video) about the Presidents with Library curators in
their white gloves.  It's linked to the "Library Today" webpage
<http://www.loc.gov/today/>.  The actual presentations are on the American
Presidents website (URL below).

American Presidents: Life Portraits and the Library of Congress Connection
<http://www.americanpresidents.org/loc/>.

The video is not the best quality, but the presentation I viewed was pretty
informative.  The programs apparently air on CSPAN first, so if you check
the website regularly, you can get the schedule.  For example, here's a VCR
Alert:  On November 29 (8:00 p.m.), join Dr. Billington in the Library's
stacks of the papers of 23 presidents.  Phone lines will be available for
questions.

Enjoy.

Betty
