After much persistence on the part of the South Dakota State Library I am happy to report that CAMIO is accessible at my school library. What an awesome resource. I am glad we were able to get it all worked out.
I searched for Paul Revere and Sioux and found many paintings and artifacts related to both. We have some art prints that our Social Studies teachers use to display in the classroom when they are discussing certain time periods, but how much more they could do with this database! As they study each time period, photographs, paintings and artifacts are readily available.
This is an excellent way to enhance stories read in Language Arts, historical discussions in Social Studies classes or view various artists in Art class.
I am looking forward to sharing this information with our teachers as most of the classrooms have projectors which would make this a great visual display. A teacher could add a set of images to favorites and have easy access for a presentation.
This is an excellent resource for both the classroom and individuals.
