Primary-source items such as diary entries, letters, maps and photos have been specially selected from Library and Archives Canada's collection and are available in "The EvidenceWeb." Quality websites for students, on a wide range of Canadian topics, have been selected for their educational value and are highlighted in "For Students," under "Great Sites."Award-winning Books for children and young people are listed in "For Students," under "Award-winning Books." Educators will be interested in the workshops offered in the "Educational Resources" database, found in "For Teachers." Curricula across Canada have been taken into consideration when developing the educational resources found in the Learning Centre.
