What the grant funds

Teaching with Primary Sources Program (TPS) The Teaching with Primary Sources program has been the Library of Congress’s premier educational outreach program. The goals of the program have included providing instructional materials, tools, education and professional development that enhance teachers’ ability to integrate digitized primary sources from the Library of Congress into instruction that builds student literacy, critical thinking skills, content knowledge and ability to conduct original research. Since the establishment of the Center for Learning, Literacy and Engagement in 2018, and the release of the Library’s 2019-23 and 2024-2028 Strategic Plans, the TPS goals are both influencing and reflecting the Library’s broader outreach goals. TPS Consortium members are valued as “Connectors” who help the Library achieve its vision of connecting to all Americans. www.loc.gov/teachers Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for New Awards (FY25-FY27) The purpose of this notice is to identify awardee organizations that will design and implement educational projects in which the Library’s digitized primary sources and other online materials are central to teaching and learning. The Library seeks to solicit project proposals that expand the body of innovative strategies, tools, and materials for meaningful teaching and learning with Library of Congress materials. Specifically, the Library of Congress seeks to make awards to support the creative and wide-ranging educational use of Library online resources that serves sub populations of Americans based on their unique professions, ethnicities, geographic locations, abilities, interests, affiliations, and other attributes. In support of the Library’s mission to use its collections to connect with those representing diverse communities, beliefs, and endeavors to engage, inspire, and inform Congress and the American people with a universal and enduring source of knowledge and creativity, the Professional Learning and Outreach Initiatives Office (PLOI), within the Center for Learning, Literacy and Engagement, has broadened the focus of TPS awards to include the design of educational projects using Library of Congress materials for use in and outside of formal classroom settings.
