This is definately a new experience with primary source documents and I can only imagine the vast implications for use in the classroom. This is a site that you should visit and share.

http://www.digitalvaults.org/

The Digital Vaults, an online interactive exhibit for the National Archives Experience, was launched in February, 2008. The Digital Vaults web site is conceived as a portal into the heart of the National Archives, and can be reached from the home page of the National Archives Experience. To enter the site directly, visit www.digitalvaults.org. This new site uses visual records such as documents, photographs, and popular media, and illustrates how these materials can come together in unexpected ways to tell the story of our country.

Enjoy!
