Finding Resources: Creating a Google Custom Search Engine

Do you have a class website or web page? If you do and you love Library of Congress primary sources as much as we do, here’s a way you can provide your students with direct access to all the fantastic resources compiled on the TPS-Barat Primary Source Nexus teaching resource blog. Simply add a custom Google search engine to your website or web page. It’s really quite easy and only takes a few steps as you will see when you watch this great, quick video tutorial by Richard Byrne of Free Technology for Teachers. Here is the TPS-Barat Primary Source Nexus custom search engine I created. Give it a try and let us know if you add a PSN search box to your site!
