Women’s History Month - Library of Congress
As noted earlier, March is Women’s History Month, and in addition to the US Census Bureau’s Women’s History Month information, there are numerous other resources out there.
One of these is the Library of Congress’s Women’s History Month site, which provides access to a wide range of topics.
This includes links to Library of Congress collections that focus on women including, among many other resources, The Hannah Arendt Papers, Margaret Mead: Human Nature and the Power of Culture, The Zora Neale Hurston Plays, and Women of Protest: Photographs from the Records of the National Woman’s Party, 1875–1938.
There are also links to Library of Congress image collections that focus on women. This includes Dorothea Lange’s “Migrant Mother” Photographs in the Farm Security Administration Collection: An Overview, Rosie Pictures: Select Images Relating to American Women Workers During World War II, and Photographs of Women During the Civil War: Selected Images.
There is even a growing Library of Congress selection of audio/video that focuses on women (most require RealPlayer).
