A multi-institutional project to advance the content and technical development of the American Congress Digital Archives Portal, which aggregates online the personal papers of former members of the United States Congress.  

The American Congress Digital Archives Portal seeks to digitize and aggregate congressional archives material in a single, searchable online portal that would expand access to individual collections and increase the research value of each collection by providing context and linkages among them.
