The platform provides access to digital content from the United States of America’s libraries, archives and museums, with all content freely available.You can explore collections by date, place and keyword search, and visit online exhibitions and more. A major online development for United States based research, but one of great significance for others - I just typed in Scotland, and suspect I will be busy with the 188 pages of returns presented, including photos and more.
