Where to Find Primary and Secondary Sources
The "Wisconsin Hometown Stories" producer found the primary and secondary sources for the video at state and local museums, in libraries, from people in the community’s personal collections at home, and online. Primary and secondary sources can often be found in the same location.

Take Notes
Where else might you find primary and secondary sources? Think of places that are local, national, or international.
Create a list of at least six places where you might find primary and secondary sources. Be specific and name real places like the Library of Congress or the Neenah Public Library.
