Voices of the Library: Spotlighting Librarians for National Library Week 2023
April 25, 2023 | HeinOnline Blog
National Library Week is one of our favorite weeks here at HeinOnline. Hosted by the American Library Association, National Library Week 2023 is being celebrated April 23-29, with the theme “There’s More to the Story”—referring not only to the vast variety of stories held within libraries, but also to all of the perhaps not as well-known services and resources that libraries provide to the community. This year, we thought what better way to celebrate than to ask librarians themselves about what they do and what they love about their library?

A New Deal on Banking Reform
April 14, 2023 | HeinOnline Blog
Silicon Valley Bank’s failure immediately brought to mind the 2008 financial crisis, both in pundit talking points and in the minds of ordinary citizens. Terms like “bank run” may have brought to mind a specific scene in It’s a Wonderful Life, and may have caused some to wonder: weren’t laws passed to prevent this exact scenario after the Great Depression?

Secrets of the Serial Set: The Mexican-American War
April 21, 2023 | HeinOnline Blog
In the early 1800s, the United States was a lot smaller, and Mexico was a lot larger. But when America’s pursuit of Manifest Destiny collided with Mexican interest, all out war broke out, leading to the Mexican-American War.

The History of Student Loan Debt in America
April 4, 2023 | HeinOnline Blog
It’s a topic that is brought up in the news weekly, if not daily: student loan debt. President Biden made cancelling student loan debt a major part of his presidential campaign, and he recently announced a plan to cancel a significant amount of debt—but it is being fought tooth and nail in Congress and the courts. Today, student loan debt adds up to more than $1.6 trillion. So how did we get here, with so many Americans drowning in debt?
