C-SPAN School Bus to visit the Truman Presidential Museum The American cable television industry created C-SPAN in 1979 and C-SPAN 2 in 1986 as a public service. Since then, the C-SPAN Networks have provided viewers with a window to the public policy process. The public affairs programming found on the C-SPAN Networks is presented without commercials or commentary and includes live, gavel-to-gavel coverage of the U.S. House of Representatives (C-SPAN) and the Senate (C-SPAN2); congressional hearings; White House, State Department and Pentagon press briefings; National Press Club speeches; insights into Supreme Court decisions; unique book programming; international public affairs events; and live viewer call-ins with journalists and public policy makers. All of the programming produced by the networks is commercial-free and copyright-cleared for educational use. We are proud that our support of the C-SPAN Networks makes these programs available for use by our local educators. Visit the C-SPAN web site at www.c-span.org for more information. Please join us on July 18 to meet the C-SPAN staff, tour the Bus and learn more about the cable industry's public service network. The Truman Presidential Museum & Library is one of ten Presidential Libraries administered by the National Archives and Records Administration. It is located at U.S. Highway 24 and Delaware in Independence, Missouri. For more information on the Museum and programs, call 1-800-833-1225 or visit www.trumanlibrary.org.
