Through this program, participants contribute authority records for personal names, corporate names, geographic names and uniform titles to the Library of Congress Name Authority File.

Summer hasn’t ended yet, but it’s not too early for our professionals to think about football books and favorite Christmas DVDs.
This month, we sit down with Ken Burns
Ken Burns has been making films for more than 30 years. Since the Academy Award-nominated Brooklyn Bridge in 1982, Ken has gone on to direct and produce some of the most acclaimed historical documentaries ever made. The late historian Stephen Ambrose said of his films, “More Americans get their history from Ken Burns than any other source.” Burns’ documentaries have been nominated for two Academy Awards (Brooklyn Bridge in 1982 and The Statue of Liberty in 1986) and have won seven Emmy Awards, mostly from The Civil War and Baseball.
