In this episode Jer dives into what makes the Library of Congress tick. He'll take you along on a tour of the acquisitions process, and he'll speak to 45 year LOC veteran Beacher Wiggins about how the library and it's operations have changed over a half century. Jer also talks to the Library's comic book curator to get some insight into how that collection is growing and evolving, and to the Veteran's History Project about their efforts to document the experiences of veterans past and present.
