- C-SPAN Video Library - "Entry to the vast history of public affairs events that C-SPAN has covered for the past twenty years. The collection is unrivaled in significant events that are documented in the C-SPAN video record. The indexing and now this site make this video record accessible in ways that here-to-fore were not possible. In reviewing the significant events, do not overlook many programs that may seem less momentous, but are equally important. In covering the routine meetings, news conferences, and briefings that occur every day, C-SPAN has built a record that allows you to now go back and see what people said when few were paying attention. Barack Obama appears on a panel on cities when he was a state legislator. Nancy Pelosi can be be observed in congressional hearings when she was a junior member of Congress. Our future leaders are on the House and Senate floor and on C-SPAN call-ins daily." (Press Release - C-SPAN Unveils New Archival Website, September 17, 2009.)
