Description of the National Archives Digital Vault and how it may help digitial natives find primary sources in a more accessible way. I'm not sure whether the digital native/immigrant difference is as important as the simple fact that the Digitial Vault is more visually appealing and interactive. I think it helps show patterns and connections between primary sources more effectively, which can be helpful for people of any age.
