| Vietnam War — Past and Present: A Resource for High School History Teachers | The web site designer writes: “as a former teacher, I understand the many challenges that instructors face in trying to cover recent US history at the end of the academic year. This web page, therefore, is meant to give teachers a fast and easy way to learn about the war, as well as ideas for how the internet can be used to teach it. It is my belief that the expanding nature of the world wide web, coupled with the fact that many Vietnam veterans are actively involved in developing their own war related sites, makes the internet a vital resource for understanding Vietnam — both as it happened at the time, and as it lives on today. So, whether you are a new teacher looking for lesson plan ideas, or a wise old sage trying to enhance an already existing syllabus, this web page has been built with you in mind.” |

| History/Social Studies for K-12 Teachers | The purpose of this site is to encourage the use of the World Wide Web as a tool for learning and teaching and to provide help for K-12 classroom teachers in locating and using internet resources in the classroom. |
| Internet Ancient History Sourcebook | The goal of this site is to provide and organize ancient texts for use in classroom situations. Links to larger online collections are provided for those who want to explore further. The distinctive feature of its layout is the avoidance of images and multiple “clicking” to find texts. The site also includes links to visual and aural material, since art and archeology are far more important for the periods in question than for later history. Its primary emphasis is on access to primary source texts for educational purposes. |
| Internet Medieval History Sourcebook | The goal of this site has been to construct a sourcebook of materials from available public domain and copy-permitted texts. [A few short extracts from copyrighted works -- abiding by the standard 300 word "fair use" rule may be posted.] The Sourcebook is in two parts. The first is made up of fairly short classroom sized extracts, derived from public domain sources or copy-permitted translations, the second is composed of full documents, or WWW links to the full documents. |
| Internet Modern History Sourcebook | This site is intended to serve the needs of teachers and students in college survey courses in modern European history and American history, as well as in modern Western Civilization and World Cultures. Its goals are: (1) to present a diversity of source material in modern European, American, and Latin American history, as well as a significant amount of materal pertinent to world cultures and global studies, and (2) to present the material as cleanly as possible, without complicated hierarchies and subdirectories, and without excessive HTML markup. |
| National Women’s History Project | An educational nonprofit organization whose mission is to recognize and celebrate the diverse and historic accomplishments of women by providing information and educational materials and programs. |

In-Depth Information Literacy Tutorials
The NMSU-A Library does not currently have its own tutorial focusing on teaching fundamental research concepts and skills. We hope to add one soon. Although the listed tutorials cater to specific university campuses and holdings, a wealth of knowledge can be gained concerning the general research process.
Campus Archives
The Library maintains a small collection of publications and materials related to NMSU-A. These materials are available for viewing in the library.
