Library staff members are encouraged to share the following ideas with patrons. Please consider adding these ideas to your website or sharing through your social media outlets.
The Montana Memory Project (MMP) is promoting ways for the public to engage with our free, online, archival content. This initiative can be viewed on our new MMP Engagement Activities page which will be updated regularly.
These activities can be done on a phone, tablet, personal computer. Families and groups can even share a device screen to a compatible television screen so the whole room can enjoy.

There is a lot of great content in the MMP but you may want to check out the Primary Source sets from the Digital Public Library of America (DPLA). These sets include teaching guides, discussion questions and additional resources that can be useful.
Here are a few related to current events:
Fake News isn't really new. Do you know how to spot sensational headlines in current news?
Does television still have the impact on news or are there other sources that have more influence on people?
There have been other epidemics before now, like the Yellow Fever Epidemic of 1878. How does that compare to today's pandemic?
Development of a polio vaccine took years. How is today's search for a COVID-19 vaccine different?
