The National Jukebox

Library Of Congress Jukebox

It’s called the National Jukebox. And while it doesn’t feature some of the songs you used to hear on jukeboxes back in the day, it eventually will. For the first time, the Library of Congress is streaming some of its huge collection of sound recordings of popular music, speeches and comedy online. Until now, library users had to go to the Library of Congress in Washington to hear the recordings. Now those recordings will be available on the free site, and users can create and share their own playlists. Check it out at www.loc.gov/jukebox.
