Looking more closely at some of the collections of the American Folklife Center may suggest research topics to students of women's history and culture. From the center's collections of American folk song to the rich windfall from the Library's Bicentennial Local Legacies project to its field documentation projects, there is scarcely a region of the country whose customs cannot be examined here.
